Market research for multi-family apartments
Hello all,
I am looking to get started in investing in the multi-family apartment space, and I am in need of a platform that will give me access to updated market data to help me find an emerging market to invest in. I am looking into getting a Costar account that gives me access to demographics, neighborhood trends, all properties for sale, off-market properties, rent comps, rent growth, etc. This is all the information I am looking for, but it comes at a hefty price of 10k a year. Any suggestions for other platforms that can give me access to this type of data? I am willing to pay this price if I have to, but want to explore my options before I make that purchase.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post, and I appreciate any type of feedback that you all have.

I pay for a lot of different subscriptions, including costar. I actually use the zip finder feature on vestmap.com a lot more and it’s more affordable than costar.
As others have pointed out there is no magic location, but I narrow down by zip codes.
