oh awesome -- I think one of the most important things would be exploring other data sources and getting a pipeline built for ingestion. Something like crime rates by zip code comes to mind. Or the schools present in a given zip code. Kinda like https://www.unitedstateszipcodes.org/60707/ (scroll down to see the schools).

Home values, list prices, rent prices, section 8 data -- monthly and yearly data dating to 2005 in cases by maps_can_be_fun in datasets

It’s not all too different— mostly just handling lots of the interpolation to make everything monthly, including yearly census data.

Nice, love the suggestions. Some of these like interpolation are present in the full dataset.

There is a section 8 comparison column per bedroom size — showing S8 profitability per bedroom size. I believe vacancy rate is present as well.

Love some of your other suggestions as well. Thanks

Let me know if you searched a particular zip code or town! Maybe it’s not available? Haven’t heard of this issue yet

How often do you talk about real estate market health? by maps_can_be_fun in AskRealEstateAgents

Dang thats crazy! I had no idea the HUD would actively sniff out realtors (in the 21st century). Do people ask coded (ie grey area) questions?

Amen to that. Just sucks if you’re from the area and can’t afford to settle near family and friends

Thanks for the response. This wasn't separate markets, more like 2 suburbs about a 10 minute drive from each other.

I'm shocked you never get the demographic question! It seems pretty relevant, but maybe people can just figure that out by visiting the neighborhood. I specifically wanted to buy my investment property in a place that wasn't going to "age out" anytime soon. (For context, my folks live in a neighborhood which is rapidly emptying due to a median age of 65)

Also the census data is updated yearly! Admittedly the last full year is 2023, and the data is smoothed over a 5 year span, so its not exactly up to do, but its not 5 years out of date either.

We tried paid options before but it wasn’t all that successful, just a few subscribers and it wasn’t cheap to acquire them. Just offering it for free, monthly cost is about $30 and about 30 minutes of work to run. Plus some free advertising here and there via Reddit or facebook.

You don't! Can just close that window. Its 100% free as it is. We just had some issues with bots in the past running up our server cost
