Introducing My New Income-Property Investment Video Course — Rebuilt for 2022
In this new and enhanced version of my popular course, I take you through the evaluation of a potential real estate investment, using a mixed-use property as my example. I start with a quick and simplified first pass to decide if the property has some promise as an investment. From there, I move on to a more in-depth analysis, evaluating potential revenue, expenses, cash flows, resale, metrics, and partnership considerations. I even test a possible renovation of some of the apartments to demonstrate how to evaluate the cost/benefit of such a re-hab.
I show you how the decision process plays out as I work it through using RealData's Real Estate Investment Analysis, Professional Edition software, a tool that investors have been using to vet projects for decades!
