Analyzing a deal (newbie)
Hello everyone. What is the best way to analyze a multifamily investment property? It seems as though there are a lot of moving parts to the whole equation. Is it as simple as using the 50% rule or 2% rule? Or is it if the property cash flows to a certain number then it is classified as a sound investment? Looking at getting into the multifamily investment area I find myself questioning if the deal is truly good. Would love to hear from people that have purchased multifamily investment properties and how they analyzed and ultimately decided the property was the one to buy. Thank you.
