    Hello everyone,

    I am very new to real estate investing and I am looking to get a property research tool/database. I am looking for one that will give me these sort of information on an area:

    – Demographics

    – Population growth

    – Sales data and history

    – Past 12 month, 3 year, 5 year growth percentage

    – Median weekly rent

    – %age rental yield

    – Average DOM

    – Vacancy rates

    – Future capital growth forecasts

    – And any other critical information astute investors look at before deciding to buy in an area/street.

    Although I am in NSW, I will prefer if this resource gives information about any part of Australia.

    I have looked at pricefinder, APM's home price guide, real estate investar and rpdata. I just need some advice on pros and cons of each also considering the price.

    Thank you very much.

    Some how I don't think you are going to find a pot of gold with all of those gems mined and presented in a list for your easy use. Collecting all of those is what takes up a lot of our research time. We subscribe to a lot of the data suppliers, even then we have to scrape data off the web to get everything we need to select the hot areas for client to invest in.
