Sources of HousingAlerts Data

We procure our data from several sources, some of which are proprietary.

If you watch the training videos or the webinar carefully, you will notice that the data source is only a small portion of the value of HousingAlerts, with the larger portion being what we do with the data and how we prepare it for easy consumption and decision making.

Quarterly Data Updates

For most of the tools, the data is updated Quarterly, approximately 55 days after the end of each calendar quarter.

The Monthly Regional Tool is updated monthly, approximately 55 days after month end.

Our database tracks specific house-by-house transactions in each market. Collecting and analyzing this information takes considerable time and effort.

Subject-To’s, Pre-Construction, and Lease options in a DECLINING market

Question:

Will Subject-to’s, Preconstruction and Lease options create wealth in declining markets?

Answer:

Subject-To’s, Lease-Options and Pre-Construction are a few of the ways to get extreme leverage. They do not create any wealth, per se, they just allow you to control a high valued asset (real estate) with little or no money in the deal.
