What %s do you use to filter your properties for more in depth analysis? 

Firstly, I want to say how grateful I am for all those that responded to my last post - it is a testament to the amazing community BiggerPockets has built in the outpouring of insightful and in-depth replies that I received to a number of questions that I posed in my "I'm new, I don't know what to do - Gurus and Gotchas" post from last week.This week I continued to focus on a number of beginner hurdles that I am sure many people face when they are diving into real estate investing for the first time.

I have put in the time and research on all properties with an in depth Property Summary that incudes, flip analysis, hold/rent analysis, financing & cash analysis, you name it my investor summary has it broken down.

I would love for someone to make a case for the depth of the drop in home prices.  

As I continue reading through more books I have noticed that, often times, it is pointed out that you cannot calculate anything more in-depth than cash-flow when using zero down (as in VA loan).

Another alternative is to start in the shallow end and gradually increasing your depth as your skills and comfort level improves.  

I live on the West Coast and have been looking for affordable cash-flowing real estate, and Missy came very highly recommended through Real Wealth Network, of which I'm a member.My experience with her has been nothing but fabulous, happy to discuss more in-depth if you'd like.

--by the time escrow closed, I was a landlord.imho, Robinson handles the human side of landlording well (along with technical and legal issues), while Nolo is the gold standard for in-depth, up-to-date legal stuff.Meanwhile, do get your head examined.

Buyers depend on a thorough in depth home inspection and a good faith disclosure on the sellers side ...what is my recourse for remediation against fraud.

When I send deals now I offer spreadsheets that has a flip summary on it along with in depth details on properties.
