I want an analytic platform that updates in realtime when properties are listed with a multivariate analysis of each properties. 

You are right @Nicholas L. because up until then I've often felt like I should be analyzing a certain number of deals per week and if I didn't then it meant that I was stuck in "analysis paralysis."  

So project selection, detailed comp analysis, detailed cost analysis, an ARV based on fact. 

I’d love to hear how you approached your analysis and secured financing.Thanks!

Your journey so far sounds impressive - developing strong analysis skills, building relationships with brokers and industry experts, and even securing potential sponsors is no small feat.

Part of the appraisal is an income analysis, but the appraiser still has to reconcile the income approach with the other two approaches to value (cost and sales comparison).  

But when I am at this stage, do you believe regular conventional loans will be my alternative option to still scale up to, say, 10 properties without having to, “bounce all around the place,” using the VA home loan. 

I did an entire analysis of the like units that come before mine.

Before making the offer, we did a quick analysis and felt this property could work as LTR and possibly MTR, or STR.

This can help with the analysis paralysis.
