Do get a fresh set of eyes you can trust to evaluate the property.

I am evaluating 12 single families and the because they haven't been publicly sold in 15 years, Zillow has no information on the properties to help.

I've dug up facts from previous BKs that I know affected the outcomes of the MFRs that we've filed.And if that first time attorney is not doing a great job, I want to know what the process is like so I can do a proper evaluation and replace him, if needed.

Practice offers, purchase contracts, and evaluations. 

Yes because if it is a good investment overall it is likely a good house hack, but you should evaluate both ways2.

As such, I assess the % of neighborhood turnover by evaluating things in person.If you want to start with looking at city data to get a grasp on macroeconomic trends and the job market, I think that's great, but once you hone in on a specific area I would suggest investing the time and money to travel out there and get a feel for specific streets before you put money into a deal.

What tools/data to you use when evaluating a property?

My question is how does this factor into the evaluation process conducted by a lender prior to issuance of a conventional mortgage that is strictly an investment property?

Then you can review/go over them there and sort it out...also use it to evaluate bids as some may be better value vs others.

.- In your situation the first step is to re-evaluate your numbers.
