Quick Method to dismiss or look into rental property
I am looking for input on methods being used to quickly qualify or disqualify properties. Spending a lot of time running numbers and wanted input from the community on what key metrics are being used to evaluate a property quickly so it either gets a deeper dive or it is scratched from the list.

Hey Michael would your analyzer system work for evaulating single family rentals too.
@Michael Ealy would you mind sharing the analyzer with me too? Seems like a great resource to have
I created my own Excel workbook that calculates whether or not I should buy a property. The same tool then determines if it should be a flip and sell or to buy and rent or BRRRR. I used the calculations from local estimates to determine average costs depending on what is needed for repairs and used those estimates to determine different levels of repairs. I made check boxes to be checked for different repairs and uses the repair levels for the costs.
The same workbook also tracks properties cashflow, expenses, and repairs and allocates them to each associated rental as I enter them into one worksheet. They then go into individual worksheets automatically which in turn calculates my cash flow, expenses, deposits, withdrawals, and anything else you can imagine. Then in turn provides me my income statement and expense statement automatically.
I am new to investing in real estate and dont have any properties, but plan to. I create things like this for fun and have talked to investors and they said it's pretty darn accurate for the area it is estimating in. I also have a separate worksheet that allows changes for different market areas for repair estimates. I am currently in college for Business and Accounting and so I enjoy making Excel sheets for calculations and for other calculating solutions.

Good day micheal !
Would you be able to share the analyzer to me as well! I’ve got a property and property taxes could increased to 9580 this year wondering if I should selll or keep and need to analyze the property this would be a helpful tool thanks in advance
Cap rate is the quick and dirty that simply peaks my interest. In my area most sell near downtown or the college at 6%, 5-10 blocks away and it rises to 7.5%. in those area if you see an 8 or 9 I’ll investigate further to see if it’s deferred maintenance. It’s a starting Point.
@Michael Ealy I would like a copy of that please.
@Michael Ealy
Could you send me that deal analyzer please?
@Michael Ealy would you be willing to share that analyzer tool with me? Thank you for your support to the other gentleman!

I've recently purchased 5 properties and put a lot of thought into dis- qualifying properties quickly. Once you know the "monthly" income, not the yearly- multiply that times 100. A property bringing in $2,000 monthly you can pay 200k for. This is a sleight variation from the 1% rule. It works VERY well and will always give you over. 10 CAP provided the expenses and meters on the apartments are all in line etc
@Greg Dickerson
That is what he was asking- your last paragraph- he was looking for the calculations- great comment though
@Tony Wallis
Like many have said it depends on what you are looking for.
What is your criteria? What type of property are you looking for? Where? What is your strategy?
Once you set those then you can take the step in figuring out the market and what is typical.
Then move on to the next step but I can't tell you unless I know what you're going for.
I underwrite large 100+ unit apartments.
@Michael Ealy - I would like to see your deal analyzer too please; would you please inbox me that tool please? Thank you in advance!!

Agreed!! I also asked for the analyzer on impulse because it could be such a valuable tool. However, after looking at his page and seeing the address, I went to the site and requested it myself and got it...lol!

Lol never use a deal analyzer unless you never want to own a rental. :)
Read the Bullet Proof portfolio paper off my BP profile 1st paragraph.
Buy based on those rules but cross off good schools, stick to 10 min to freeways 39 min to jobs.
Buy only in growing jobs markets!!! Jobs are what makes RE work.
Cute, in a neighborhood, 300 or more rent over mortgage. Is a good deal.
Rents will go up to improve the numbers!
