Someone could crunch all the numbers for you, but you may as well do it yourself.

Try focusing on sellers that are motivated to sell but not in desperate need of cash.For example, a seller that is facing imminent foreclosure is definitely going to want to close ASAP and will want as much cash as they can get for the deal, and will be enticed by the guarantee of $2000 (or whatever) no matter what happens with your deal.On the other hand, a seller that wants to offload their rental property because they're tired of being a landlord will want to sell, but won't likely be dealing with a time crunch, so they'll be more flexible with both the closing date and the EMD. 

I'd crunch the numbers on a few more properties so you start understanding unit prices for different work.

The earlier you can start analyzing and crunching numbers the stronger you will be.Good luck and you are in a GREAT market for flips!

I don't really see anyone actually in Solano that crunches numbers and concludes they'd be better off buying in Oakland or SF.I've got one gentlemen actively engaged in selling off his SFR and condo assets and 1031ing them into 2-4 unit props.... so far, all his purchases have been in Solano. 

I' creating a model in excel so that I can easily crunch the numbers.

I learn to crunch the numbers for today and next 5 years, 10 years, 15, etc.

I'll be happy to help you come up with a game plan and crunch the numbers.

Also, many thanks to @Richard Dale-Mesaros for the great phone call and advice.Appraisal on the property is today, then it's time to crunch the numbers!

The toughest part would be insurance and tax rates but those you can get close enough through searching, at least close enough to do some quick number crunching.
