What information sources do you use to research real estate?

[MIW]

Like most above have been mentioned but also Australian Bureau of Statistics can be very useful (even though it may be not so user friendly). You could see where the incomes are increasing, what demographics are changing!

.id deserves a third mention. Super resource!

It sounds like it's for people who don't know how to use excel.

Models are a case of garbage in / garbage out. What really matters are the assumptions you plug in and the basis for those assumptions.

Sounds about right. Being new to this forum, do people share their models and approach? I'd keen to learn the right questions to ask in order to choose property. I have started to develop my own, but I'm sure someone who has been doing this for some time has a far better model and approach!
