@Brian Ellis That’s by far my most important data point.  

Has anyone had success with portable security cameras that operate on data and not wifi?

Here are the year-end market statistics for the South Florida Real Estate market (Broward and Palm Beach Counties)As you can see...The number of listings is decreasingList Prices have leveled offAbsorption rate increasingDays on Market (a leading indicator of price point validity in my opinion)This data is for residential properties.

For Air BNB i would look into one of the data analytics companies like AIR DNA for example.

Don't get me wrong, some people don't want to tie up their funds for 12-14 months and want to take advantage of the historically low interest rates so they are willing to forgo $25-$30k in equity to tie up an express home like DR Horton offers.

We plan to fix that after the leases expire, but as far as historical income goes, I don't think the DSCR would be high enough.A question about DSCR loans for small properties - is there a standard algorithm that a lender would use for maintenance and repairs?

My plan is actually to do a test run so I hope to be able to report back, but thought I would ask others as I haven't seen anyone (yet) that put an actual (tentative of course) offer on a postcard.My mailer list will be a combination of parcels that 1) have been more researched, so I feel comfortable putting a quote based on Market Value from Assessor lists, comps from recent sales, etc. and 2) those with less data available - these wont get a "quote" postcard but a more neutral message. 

I'm becoming aware of the Case-Shiller Index and the Eviction Lab data as a big picture source of information.

Which means sales data is not public information.

Do I need to open escrow on the land first to attain geographical data?
