They don't know that I know this, but now I know how much they want to make off of me.3 Comparative Market Analysis have been performed.

ummmm, Im thinkin, I havent bought a property yet but from all the reading, and websites (like this one) AND the property analysis software out there, why would I need someone else to crunch the numbers for me??

My point is that the 50% Rule is applied to a first-pass analysis (just like you describe below how you do it), and ultimately that analysis will indicate that the property is worth pursuing (PASS) or not worth pursuing (FAIL).

(false evidence appearing real) that comes with the first deal, but I can't seem to bring myself to buy in on three Comparative Market Analysis that have been performed for the subject property.

So, please, do not go off my analysis...Based on the numbers you quote, it looks like a good -- but not amazing -- deal.

I'm 23, recently graduated from Miami University in Oxford, OH with degrees in Psychology and Systems Analysis, and currently work as a technology integration consultant for one of the Big 4.

Good morning everyone,I hope your week has been good so far.I need your analysis of this possible deal that my realtor tossed my way.Seller is facing foreclosure.

Alot of banks will allow a 3x repair value for the home to be factored in the market analysis of a home in a pre-list stage.I deal with foreclosures on both sides, the agent preparing to sell, and the investor wanting to buy.

I wouldn't even CONSIDER deal number 2 unless the purchase price was at or below $57,500.Of course, you'd still have to perform a cash flow analysis using real world numbers (with all of the expenses, not just the ones you included).

I like MikeOH's analysis method that he has alluded to elsewhere, where if the property wouldn't cash flow at $0 down, then it's not a good deal.
