Dave,
Because they gather from so many sources, the numbers are a skewed. Because I list my homes all over the web, it picks up my homes for lease multiple times. They have 37 listed for one zip code and 8 of those is for just one of my homes listed. My other homes within that area are listed multiple times as well - another couple of homes 5 times. Looking at this one zip code instead of 37 listings there are really only 20 different homes that I can see available. Maybe in other areas where someone is not listing on so many different sites, like I am, the numbers are more accurate.

It also is a great place for me to see where owners that have decided to lease their property without a property manager but have inquired about my services are using “Lease a Home” or some variation of it. Isn’t copying a form of flattery, so I must be doing something right :)

Wendy,

Those are good comments how the Oodle data can be inaccurate.

I hadn’t thought of that possibility. Thanks for sharing.

Dave
