sorry, not citing any "data"

Box offers tracking data which tells you whether and when your document was viewed.

The true test of a successful business is one where the owner could go away for a month and come back to the same operation he left.

Since i'm just getting started and trying to test out what works and what doesn't I'd rather do more of the stuff myself so I can control how many cards go out, the day they go out and what areas go out.

You can determine an estimate of ARV from the data you are collecting plus driving by.Without seeing the interior I just estimate the worse case scenario.

@Karen Margrave what data makes you think that the market will only go up from here?

it is a switch in data file!)

I wouldn't mind taking a test, and actually, this wouldn't be a bad option for most people, as it would be a better indicator of whether they know what they are getting into, and whether they should be investing in anything risky at all.

As for targeting rents, I was handed a year’s worth of data on what other properties rented for.
