I'm trying to analyze a potential flips in Newark, Ca (East Bay in general).

where can we find places-websites to analyze areas that will provide positive cash flow?

But the most realistic goal I have is to get better at analyzing deals.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

They are completely different forms of investing and should never be analyzed the same way.

Finally, start small, analyze deals, and build a team to guide you as you gain experience.

There are a bunch of different figures associated with this decision, such as new interest rate, old interest rate, cash flow of new property etc, but I'm having a hard time getting my mind around how to analyze the decision mathematically.  

I’d be happy to talk with you and help you analyze deals, and if I’m your agent that’s great, if not that’s okay too, just make sure you pick an agent who owns rental properties themselves if that’s what you are trying to do.

Also, how would I analyze the numbers for this deal, because there are various ways it could be used, either separate or possibly all together for a larger group.

For real estate just start analyzing as many deals as you can so you get more comfortable and confident.
