Our First Stab at Market Analysis Tools
YGL is mostly ran by engineers and tech guys. We strongly believe that knowledge is power. What we want to do is to provide our clients with lots of good data to help them make informed decisions and stay ahead of the curve.
We just released a new Market Analysis feature for individual listings, allowing you to compare a given listing to other similar listings currently on market. You can access this feature in the Listing Details page, in the Reporting menu. The report gives you information on the current average / median rent, the volume of availabilities, fee structures, utilities and recent rental history. We hope this information will give you an idea how competitive your listings are in the market, and adjust them accordingly.
This is our first stab at the problem. We are very much looking forward to your feedback on this. Please do not hesitate to tell us what you think, and what type of info would make the report more useful. In the future, we are looking to provide this to your buildings and landlords.

Market Analysis Report for Your Listing
Looks really good! First suggestion I have is the ability to send it to landlords. Either a public link or the ability to PDF the report.
Hi Doug,
Thanks for the feedback. We are looking into what’s the best way to do that. Was originally thinking about downloading it as a PDF (like the print features), but didn’t work, because the graphs take too long to generate.
In the meanwhile, I think we are going with the idea of sending a link directly to the landlord to see this report.
