Far too many get stuck in the "paralysis by analysis" stage, thinking they just don't know enough to get started.

I'm in very similar position, looking to start my RE investing journey around Boston area and facing struggle to cash out on my stock portfolio to try to get a MF, that using BP analysis tools, will be barely break even...even in slightly farther surrounding areas. wishing us both luck though! 

Sounds great, my expertise is deal analysis as well so happy to trade notes and connect!

For Conventional, you can only use 75% of the gross rent until you have Sched E history for the rental for a net rental income analysis. 

Curious to hear what some of you with bigger portfolios think of that kind of analysis.  

Thoughtful analysis, @Alan Asriants.

Or, has your analysis-paralysis already taken over?
