Analysis Practice Advice

[Parker Black]

Is there a place that people can practice analyzing deals or look back at the numbers on successful deals? I’m imagining something similar to how a student does homework / practice examples to prepare for a test.

Exactly @Richard Miller — listed rent and actual lease price are two very different numbers, and most people underwrite off the wrong one. Landlords post what they hope the market pays. The market tells you pretty quickly what it actually will. That gap is where a lot of deals fall apart on paper after closing.
