@Chris HainsI use the House Flipping Spreadsheet (https://www.houseflippingspreadsheet.com/) to do the planning, analysis and estimating prior to purchase. 

From my experience, one key factor here is to run a thorough cash-flow analysis.. it’s not just about the mortgage payment, but also about unexpected exepnses like repairs and long-term capital improvements.If you do decide to roll that equity into a multi-family, you’ll want to be clear on your target returns.. that way you can quickly spot a deal that’s actually profitable.

Got analysis paralysis few years ago.

Then I texted his cell phone, using the phone numbers displayed in the email Brian sent me.

Consider text marketing.

For a quick analysis, I get as close to the 1% price to rent ratio rule for cash flow in Indiana when I was doing my search and narrowing down properties.

@V.G Jason - This is an outstanding observation and analysis. 

The successful wholesalers are the ones that are direct with the seller and have done an analysis on the deal to show it can be a successful investment (always double check with your own)totally agree, I would add the don't act sketchy and present their available homes in a consistent/professional manner to buyers. 

You will only learn so much from a course and will go into paralysis analysis.
