Program to automatically pull publicly available data about an address like population growth, etc?
I am transitioning over to CRE and was wondering if anyone knew an automated tool that you enter an address and it automatically queries certain apis for certain data. I am developing my buying criteria(positive population growth, median income that can afford the rents I want to target, employment sector diversity, etc) and would really like to automate as much as I can. If I can't find a tool like this I will have one coded and probably make it available to the public. Let me know your thoughts. The census bureau for example has a wide variety of data but you will have to dig for it. Having it available on one screen would be really helpful.
