Hello Ashley I am new to real estate investing myself. I do not focus on wholesale but do understand waiting for the first deal to come around. I just want to say keep your head up! You will get a deal. I am cheering for us newbies (and veterans).

Please help me and tell me which website you use for each 1) Median Sales price for specific amount of bedrooms/bathrooms (ie: median price of 3bd/2ba) 2)rental ranges 3)economic development - is it growing, declining, or stable? 4)Interest rates 5)market demand - buyer, seller, flat? 6) average age 7) avg DOM. Thanks in advance. It is overwhelming being a newbie. Any advice anyone can give about studying a specific zip code will be so appreciated! THANK YOU!
