If good, it's easy to store and even put on the 'fridge.

I see a lot of deals being turned down when there's only looked at the 100$ cashflow requirement without even considering the return.....But I guess its easy to analyze a deal only on 1 criteria rather than looking at the whole picture?!

Now this just makes me think even more because how easy is it to find a home with a payment of 1000 a month that you can rent for over 2000 a month?

I'm not talking about going through a full blown due diligence check, but just a quick check of the numbers presented to you (hoping they're not proforma but actual P&L numbers) to even see if you want to go any farther.I know about different analysis spreadsheets which i think they're great. but what i'm talking about is how do you analyze the numbers/deal if you were out in the field and all you had was a calculator. what i want to know is:1. what info (numbers) am i required to get to do this quick analysis2. how do i properly use these numbers to make them mean something (like is the deal over or under priced, will it be hard or easy to get funding and etc), so what's the equation.

That's an easy question.
