Analyzing the numbers

[Kevin Facteau]

Hello BiggerPockets community,

I am new to investing and currently looking for my first property. I am seeking multifamily properties and have already stumbled upon a couple of them. Unfortunately, I wasn’t fast enough and someone beat me to it. 

I am interested to know, what tool or tools or even steps do many of you experienced investors rely on when analyzing the numbers to determine if the listing is worth contacting an agent for a showing? 

I hope this question makes sense. 

Thank you!
