Hey Folks, Data nerd here. I originally posted this is innovative strategies forum but i think this forum might be a better home for this topic. Looking for as many publicly available (free) real estate data sets as I can get my hands on. I'm also interested in curated reports or data that may be related to the real estate market (Commercial info, sales in other markets, jobs reports, retail store locations). I'm currently working on merging or overlaying home value, rent, school ratings, state census info for fun. I'd love to take advantage of larger companies marketing and planning. I bet a company like Whole Foods is pretty sure an area is going to grow in population and/or income before they drop a new location.

Let me know if you're aware of any data sets like the ones I mentioned above. I'm specifically interested in data sets in the Massachusetts and Rhode Island but national sources are good too. What do you use to do your research?
