Deal Analysis Resources

I saw the video below a couple years ago. Is this basically what you use to analyze a deal? If so, it doesn't seem difficult to pick a property and analyze it. This may be a dumb question, but why do people make it sound harder than it is? If there are better resources, what do you use?

The problem is this is a single property calculator. We use mass analysis where it does these calculations for thousands of listings in the market daily. 

Most guru’s do this in the background so their organization can find the actual best deals. They won’t show you that part. Why would they? They don’t want the mass mom and pop small investors out there to see how they actually do it! They want you to buy books and webinars, and their inside group. And instead they provide single property calculators. You would have to enter hundreds of properties daily to see how they compare and pick the true outliers.

Most investors don’t understand this type of mass analysis. We call it total market analysis where every single property is underwritten and analyzed every day. It’s what the institutional “Wall Street” investors do. They don’t sit there and calculate one property at a time. 

Hope this explains it a bit more.
