The further I dug into the data and understood the property and market the more I realized it was actually a value-play deal!

My focus is on 3 bed 2 bath SFRs under $150k for buy&hold and cash flow investing.There is so much data online, that it's sometimes overwhelming to comprehend and correlate with what you are trying to achieve as an REI. 

What methods do you use to get data on livability for a property (schools, crime, employment, ...) in a relatively fast manner?

I think i did everything wrong on this first contact with the seller, i got nervous i didn't have my script ready.. but i am calling tomorrow again with data, hard numbers, an offer, setting an appointment to evaluate my offer and counter, and get that deal!! 

Then I did some web scrapping to pull the valuable data and stick them in a spreadsheet. 

You have the same baseline costs to keep the sfr functioning as a $9-1100/mo house, or even a $2200/mo house.Not really enough data provided.. 

This would be my first property and not sure if I am better of putting $112k elsewhere.Attached should be the spreadsheet with all the data. i

Plus they ship directly to you.But the big attraction is that they keep track of how much you've spent on each house or park, so that you have control over those costs and can use that data to make sure you make a profit on each home sold (or at least know where you stand before you price it).Here's an article I wrote about them for my newsletter recently:Why Most Smart Park Owner Are Changing Over To Purchasing Platform To Buy Virtually Everything For Their PropertyIn 2018 we became huge customers of Purchasing Platform – one of their largest.

at the point where you bid on assets you only have a few bits of data on the fc, not the whole picture.

I found listsource.com and I think it is interesting how much data is available.
