I came across a wholeseller assigning a sub2 deal on fb. Post basically said UPB 105k 4.5% loan house built in 2006 4/2/2 1800 sq ft ARV 190k. Cost to close the deal 25k. This house was 2 hours away from where I live ...

I currently have a large 1300 sq ft+ 1 / 1 condo that has a very high HOA in general but after analyzing the data it's also high for the building.

Again I have no skin in the game yet myself, been educating and analyzing like crazy to this point.

A small referral fee is not worth the amount of work you would have to perform to properly analyze every investor, every flip, and every flipper...not even close. 

I am learning to analyze deals like Brandon is coaching us to do.I am analyzing a 3 bed, 3 bath, 2,639 square foot house built in 1900and for sale for $55,000. 

What standard values for cost increase, rent increase & property value are most common. I am new and know it will vary by area but looking for a starting point.

I feel two things stand out: #1) the importance of taking action "Just do a deal" (it should of course be a good one)  and #2) learn to analyze deals by doing so every day (or as close to that as possible).Item #2 seems essential to being able to do #1 without totally bungling it. 

I'm attempting to analyze properties in my target area and am curious as to thoughts and what kind of oversights there might have been.

Just curious how you guys are analyzing your rental property investments, specifically with regard to investing in existing properties in the form of additions and other improvements that increase monthly cash flow.Do you focus more on monthly cash flow?

You need to step back analyze the property and if it is profitable you keep it, if not you sell.Remember, emotion is for friends and family, not for financial decisions.
