How do you determine what makes a deal a good one?

[Joe Abramovich]

GM BP Fam, I'd love to hear some insight on what your key indicators are for evaluating a deal(s)? What is the deal breaker?

Hope Everyone has a great Wednesday!

There are 2 things that make a deal:

1 - The minimal cost to the REI. The cost, and the ONLOY cost, to a REI is all the cash (only) they put into the deal.

2 - The terms.  The terms are defined by "How someone, or something else, pays for the rest".

It's just that simple.  Everything else is either just decoration, rationalization (very expensive), or the means to execute numbers 1 and 2 above.
