Real Estate Investment Philosophy

[Tyler Durbin]

Hi everyone ... I'm a few properties in (both flips and buy/hold income properties) and with some nice returns from my first investments, I'm on the road to building a nice financial base to continue investing but want to make sure I'm doing so objectively. 

Have you built a real estate investing philosophy/methodology or business plan that identifies what an investable deal for you looks like, what metrics you use to determine, what you assess. Anything to take the emotion out of investing what seems like a hot deal, but actually may not be. Any help?
