We previously published an article here explaining how to test a home investment in the US prior to its purchase. The reason we did this is because many Israelis understand that there are many US states that are an excellent investment channel but there is a long way to go to purchase one of them. In addition to the article, it is important to understand that in the United States there is a wealth of information accessible to everyone and only one needs to know how to search, what to look for and where to look. In order to optimize this work for you, we have put together a number of websites to help you get reliable and independent information about US regions and assets.
Recommended websites for Israeli investors:
Analysis of investment area at city level and targeting area:
AREA VIBES - A great tool for an investor starting an initial investment zone review. The site shows data on education level, crime level, population type, income level, and more. In this regard, we have released a free video lesson explaining how to explore and locate a region worth investing in in the US. To enter the class click here.

Rentometer - A site used to estimate the rent of a given property based on comparison with rental data of similar properties in the environment. zillow - This site serves as the billboard for homes for sale in the United States. It is also named as a billboard for homes for rent in the United States. You can get more information, such as data on home sales in the area, and much information on each property including school rating, property tax assessment, property specifications and more.
Demographic, socio-economic data, crime level and education level examination by school rating:
census.gov - The US Census site contains a lot of useful information for analyzing viable investment zones in the United States and as such, it includes information on areas of focus areas, population data, demographics, and socioeconomic data. realtor - Like the zillow site, this site also serves as a billboard for homes and homes for rent in the United States. However, the uniqueness of this site is that it incorporates a good tool for examining the level of crime around the high-resolution property. greatschools.org - On-site information on schools in the area can be found that includes a grade that ranks the quality of schools. This data is very important to understand the area and to know the level of population living in the property area.
Checking the location of the property, how the house and the street look:
Google Maps - Yes, a Google Map site that is familiar to all of us can serve as a map tool to analyze the surrounding area of the property and can also give you a look at the street where the property is located and see the house itself.
The location of the county in which the property is located + The location of the city where the property is located:
County website - On the county site where the property is located you can find specific information about the property: sales history, property taxes, check who the property is registered with, property history change with permits, premiums and more. City Website - Each city has its own website. On the city site where the property is located you can find information about economic development plans that affect the city, information about payments that the city charges on properties, information about the city's enforcement processes, such as: points of sale, rent checks and more. This information is very important for understanding all the factors to consider when choosing a given investment area. For example, you can see the Cleveland city site.
Want to invest in a US property? We recommend using these sites, but don't settle for them.
When an investor performs remote control activity in Israel, it is impossible for him to know whether the house he is purchasing is worthwhile for an investment, since he has only eyes. Therefore, it is not enough to rely on the sites we have collected for you, but you also need the help of a professional who will do the home inspection and confirm what is promised by the sellers. Checking a home includes many steps and highlights and we all expanded on the article “How to Test a Home in the US Before Buying an Investment. ? "
In conclusion,
Real estate investors in the United States have a way of accompanying professional and extensive testing that will eventually lead to the purchase of the intended property.
