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

Over the years, I have 1) invested heavily in education (underwriting, financing, market analysis, asset management, identifying macro/micro trends per market, etc), and 2) developed strong relationships with a network of accredited investors who are interested in diversifying and jumping into the multifamily space.

I’ve been listening to podcasts and am currently reading The House Hacking Strategy by Craig Curelop, which has been really informative.One area I’m struggling with is deal analysis.

You’re neck deep in Paralysis of Analysis, a virus more debilitating than the Spanish flu, Bubonic Plague, and the latest virus du jour, Covid.I’m no different than you. . .well, I’m Italian, so I’m a better cook and I have three Uncle Tony’s who collect my rents.

Make use of tools like PropStream or Zillow’s market analysis feature to assess property values and rental potential.PS: Did you know that Indiana has one of the lowest property tax rates in the country, making it a relatively cash-flow-friendly market for new investors?

In short - here are the reasons I pivoted to Real Estate Investing:All the benefits of Real Estate + growing STR optionsInflation raging at 10%/moCurrency wars and what or who will win them (Prec Metl or CDBC, etc.)Equities markets receive derivative pressures from credit markets and pressures on US dollarRealistic 10+ year opportunity in using Creative Financing, given monetary policies.Global disruption and impact analysis of COVID to businesses (small/large) and individualsWhat I was (originally) looking to get out of the program:Better understanding of Real Estate and it’s MarketLocally like-minded ppl that are more about collaboration than cannibalization (not reflective of BP in any way – this community is great too)Improvement in comfort level working in REI and learning “on the job”A community where I could find deals, connect with ppl for help and ask questions, etc.Business and Corporate Structure recommendations to accommodate short-term & long-term investment strategiesAnonymity strategiesAccess to vetted contracts for traditional, creative and gator (EMD) Real Estate dealsMy experience and feedback based on my expectations:Great original 6 week mentorship program.

I currently work in the restaurant industry and a multi-unit manager so data analysis is in my blood.   

Stuart Udis,Great analysis and explanation!

I am definitely getting stuck with analysis paralysis as many beginners do.

Thank you, Sean Urann Do not get stuck in analysis paralysis
