Property Analysis Scenarios
Hi BP!
I'm looking for some advice on how many analytical scenarios I should consider and which scenarios should hold the most weight.
I am currently analyzing deals in Providence, RI and I will be using a FHA 3.5% down loan product and owner occupying.
With such a low down payment and only collecting rents from 2 out of 3 units since I will be occupying one, the numbers are a bit skewed. Essentially every deal I analyze has low or negative cash flow. So I started running the numbers with different scenarios: not owner ouccpied, 20% down, current rents, market rents, etc.
My question is, how should I be looking at these numbers and which scenario should hold the most weight?
