Analyzing Deals With Accurate Numbers

[Stefan Coles]

Hello BP,

I am starting to analyze numerous amounts of deals in my spare time to get the feel for it.  I am wondering if there are any websites the BP community uses that give accurate numbers such as;

• Average rent for your area
• Average PMI for your area
• Average electricity bill
• Average water, sewer, and garbage
• and so on....

I have used a few websites that seem to give me accurate numbers but I would like to know if there are any better sites out there.  Also, if you have used any of the sites below what would be the accuracy rating you would give them?

Stefan Coles I agree with Rebecca Belnap on using rentler.com to find rent rates in your area or target market. If you're looking at a specific property to purchase, you can call the city and usually get the information you need on the utilities. Questar gas will give you annual averages with a quick call to them. It's been said, but property taxes can be found on county websites. Hope that helps
