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

I want to become really good at analyzing deals, and determine the markets I should focus on.Are there any resources aside from this forum (books, journals, news publications, podcasts) that you recommend I use to learn more?

To get started, connect with a knowledgeable real estate agent and lender, practice analyzing deals, and network through local investor meetups.

Are you asking about how to analyze the numbers for a deal?

This is something I try to live by and teach my kids if I can - "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

In the process of analyzing deals, I reached out a property manager for his fees.

Where I have seen AI or other tools help is with the initial data entry process, so one can spend their time analyzing and modeling the data (vs. keying in data).

I am not sure how to analyze the numbers.

Don't know how to analyze a deal effectively?

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.
