Most brokers and realtors should be able to complete a rental market analysis using the MLS.There is no question that due-diligence can often times be hard and time consuming.

I was curious about anyone's experience or perspective on investing in specific deals offered by the crowd funding platforms, vs investing in real estate investment funds (which are also offered periodically.)I spoke with one real estate private equity head who related it to the difference between buying an individual stock vs investing in a sector specific mutual fund.
