Just wanted to say hi to the BP community and especially anybody in Hawaii.I did want to ask if anyone knows a place where I can learn the investment terms and especially what formulas to know when investing.  

On the flip-side, I have a decent side-business wholesaling the properties that don't fit my flip-formula, but are great landlord properties.  

He agreed real estate investing was a good idea, but gave me no formulas or other advice.

Lets say the mortgage on my property is $800. Expenses = 50%, to be on the safe side. So, would $1,200 be a reasonable rent rate for this property?

(What formula is used?)

What hurts Investors that use this formula is it does not account for Holding Costs, Backend Selling Costs, etc.I use the following formula to determine my Maximum Allowable Offer (MAO).

Please search my previous comments and others regarding valuation or evaluating mobile home parks to get the formulas and so on. 

I honestly don't have a formula.

I had an automated email service from the MLS created for me by an agent I have communicated with.I have been using the BP analysis tools as a way to familiarize myself with the process; however, every now and then I do the number crunching on my own in an effort to make sure I have some of the formulas down.I have been thinking about the BRRRR method quite a bit and would like to learn more about it.

I'm just wondering if there are any guidelines/formulas for VR's similar to the 2% rule for sfr's.
