How to Search Comps on a Potential Deal Quickly?

How to Search Comps on a Potential Deal Quickly?

Member since 2018 · 2 posts · 0 votes

My business partner and I are new to the game and we keep missing awesome deals because we're stuck relying on our real estate agents to pull comps for potential deals, are there any resources or podcast episodes on this topic?

Thanks!

    Hi Matthew, Zestimate gets a bad rap, but you can use Zillow to draw a geographic area and look at recent sales. It will give you 2 years, you just want the last 3-6 months (newer is better). 
    You can give yourself a leg up by turning these comps into price per square foot and keeping a record of what those prices are doing in the areas that interest you. Good luck!

    Thanks Amanda! I'm curious about what your process looks like for turning comps into price per sq/ft? I'm still wrapping my head around this numbers game! lol
