Mashvisor receives updated listings for sale nightly, and you can benefit from seeing these newly added properties first-hand.

There are two ways to create email alerts to receive property selections in your email at the frequency you select: daily, weekly, or monthly.

Method #1

  1. On the navigation bar on the left-hand side of your screen, go to Find & Invest > Property Alerts. You may also follow this direct link: https://www.mashvisor.com/explore/profile/alerts

  2. Click the blue +Add New Alert button.

  3. The Create new property alert form will pop out from the right of your screen. Fill in or select the following details:

    • Alert name - The designation for this specific alert to differentiate it from any other alerts you already have or will make.

    • A specific address, name of a neighborhood, name of a city, or a zip code - As you type, a dropdown will appear to suggest which location you want to get an alert for. Click the one you want.

    • Property type - Check the appropriate box/es if you want to only get alerts for single-family homes, condos, townhomes, multifamily homes, or all of them.

    • Number of bathrooms - Select a range of numbers or a specific number from 1 to 5.

    • Number of bedrooms - Select a range of numbers or a specific number from 1 to 5.

    • Property price range - Select a range of numbers or a specific number from $5,000 to $5,000,000

    • Financing - Select whether you plan to buy the investment property in cash or with a mortgage.

    • Mortgage details - If you select "Mortgage" under financing, you can enter the down payment amount you plan to make, your preferred interest rate, and your preferred loan term (15 or 30 years).

    • Your preferred minimum cash on cash return

    • Your preferred minimum cap rate

    • Email frequency - Choose whether you want to receive emails about this property alert daily, weekly, or monthly.

  4. When you're done, click the blue Save Alert button at the bottom of the form.

Tips

  1. You don't have to fill in or select all the details in the form. If your filters are too restrictive, you may miss out on some great properties.

  2. We recommend setting the minimum cap rate at 4%.

  3. If you see too many properties that may be missing the mark, edit your alerts to tighten up the filters.

We will only send you an email alert if there is at least one property that meets your criteria.
