DEAL ANALYZING 1ST HOUSE HACK

[Azaleia Sinclair]

Hello my BP friends,

About 6 months back my interest in starting my real estate journey had peaked and I could not stop thinking about it, so I decided to jump in. At start, my credit and debit were the problems, and I have diligently worked on getting my credit score corrected and now have about 6k saved up. I am aiming to have my first property by mid-year (May-July) hopefully. I wanted to add that my first hack will be a multifamily property, in the Ft Lauderdale/Miami area using my VA loan. I am aiming for 3+ units but I will take 2 if the deal is good.

You guys have helped me tremendously in my short time and I have hit another roadblock and I wanted to ask for advice. It may seem silly of me to ask this, but I am a novice and I love to learn from other people before making my own decisions.

How do you analyze and find deals? What numbers do you look at to make the determination point that you have a good deal? What are the considering factors? I know it may be a lot to explain so if you have any book suggestions, online readings or podcast that can explain in simple terms I would love to hear those as well. Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Thank you BP Fam!
