What number makes or breaks your analysis?

[Nick Zasowski]

Hey Everyone, 

I'm new to the REI game (just got my first offer accepted on a tri-plex!) and curious what metric you think is most important when analyzing investment properties? I listen to @Brandon Turner webinars and podcasts all the time and ran my first analysis on buying something over 8% CoC per his recommendation. I was curious if there were any numbers to focus on that make or break a decision for you and why? Someone mentioned to me their big focus was NOI so thought there might be a few other theories out there to learn about while analyzing future properties.

Thanks in advance for any feedback here.
