Most Meaningful RE Metrics for Buyer, Banker, Investor,

Tom Henderson

Hello Team,

I just finished reading "What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow... And 36 Other Key Financial Measures"... Awesome book!

I'm curious, when you buyers are doing your due diligence, what are your top 5 equations you run? For example, CAP Rate is good, but I like how Frank mentions that is more of a snap shot in time. What are 4 others?


What do you think your portfolio investors are most interested in? I am courting a couple different investors right now to invest with me... What metrics would they like to see? 

One of my favorite Podcasts was the "5 C's a banker looks for" (or something like that). Same question here, which metrics do you think a portfolio lender or private banker is most concerned with?

Perhaps they are all the same, maybe they are different. I am looking forward to updating the spreadsheet I use to evaluate my portfolio purchases, and also update my deck, which I share with investors/bankers.

Thank you,

Tom
