I'm not simply looking at a snapshot of the present rent and dividing it by the purchase price although this is better than nothing, It is not sufficiently sophisticated for me to make smart decisions as to which properties to purchase.

The huge demand for medical laboratory commercial space in the Greater Boston region is astounding.I'm looking for fellow commercial professionals who have utilized any specific calculators/software to analyze commercial deals.I'm not simply looking at a snapshot of the present rent and dividing it by the purchase price although this is better than nothing, It is not sufficiently sophisticated for me to make smart decisions as to which properties to purchase.I'm looking for a tool tool that can quickly take all factors into account such as mortgage interest and depreciation allowances to work out the true effect of our returns.I know it's impossible to expect any piece of software to give me a green or red light with regard to property acquisition.And realize a deal is good depending largely on the circumstances of the investor.

@Axel Meierhoefer unfortunately in NYC in the price range I'm looking in, it is very rare to be able to pay less than 20% and that's no matter if its a HELLOC or a trad mortgage.

Although I don't have many students, I can provide some feedback on your questions.1) September 1st lease start date, possibly August 1st or August 15th to line up with the school year would be my suggestion.2) 1 Year lease should be sufficient.

The first 3 units range between a 4.95-4.91 rating.

Please help me think through what I might be missing and any suggestions of other creative ideas.Purchasing a BRRRR property in price range of $50K-100K with $20-50K of rehab needed. (70K-150K ALL IN)Currently have:- HELOC against Primary for 60K @ 4.125% and another 40K liquid for the investment. = $100K- interest free credit cards for 21 months with 0 interest = $75KMy thought process was to buy with HELOC and cash and rehab with 0% interest credit cards. 

The floor plan was perfect where he could split the home in half, convert the laundry room into a small kitchenette (there's already a drain line for the sink and gas line for a small range) and he can significantly offset his mortgage.

Also keep in mind that price attracts people looking in that price range.

Real estate investing clearly requires a wide range of skills to be successful.

I haven't seen anything that is in that range for under 100k in a decent neighborhood.
