Finding rental properties in MLS
I would like some feedback from my theory on finding potential rental properties based on 1% rule in the MLS. My steps:
1) Find location of desired rental property
2) Run a quick CMA of leased properties to get an average $/sq ft rent.
3) Run a quick CMA of active properties in the same location.
4) From the list, multiple the sq. ft * avg leased $/sq ft for potential rent.
5) If 1% of the property's listing price is less that the above (#4), then this could be a potential property.
Any thoughts on this approach?
