It is prudent for the seller to know enough about the market to properly analyze the improvements and their effect on the value of the property.From the buyers side, only put down an earnest money deposit that you can afford to lose.

., but don't believe everything you hear and never pay for crap courses because you can get everything you need on the internet for free.One major problem investors have is even the brokers and wannabe professionals don't know how to analyze properties and they are full of poop.

I am currently working on analyzing deals daily in Texas, trying to increase my potential leads and  speaking with/vetting potential property managers right now.

It was probably in my former investment experience... that pesky $90k I spent on those awful law school classes... what a tragic waste of time... ...you know... unless they then allowed me to properly analyze rulings, understand the legal process, and be able to say with near 100% certainly, that the mandates you're clearly referring to, shall be federal law soon enough. 

At this stage of the market I'm putting a lot more emphasis on debt service coverage ratio (a measure of risk) than cap rate or cash on cash return, at least in my own analyses.Also, since this question frequently comes up with owner-occupied properties, even though you're going to live there I'd analyze all the units as if you're not going to live there so that you can look at it on an investment basis compared to other properties, rather than mixing in your own personal tax/financial situation into the property analysis.
