PRACTICING ANALYZING PROPERTY

Jason Malabute

Hi All,

I JUST UPGRADED TO PRO!!!!

I am a first time investor. I want to practice and analyze rental properties using the BP calculator. My goal is I want to master (or at least practice) analyzing duplexes so many times using the BP rental property calculator that by the time my agent starts giving me leads I'll be comfortable analyzing properties quickly and accurately.

GOALS: 

Analyze 3 sample properties a week.

QUESTIONS:

1. Where can I get sample property numbers (besides purchase price) to practice with?

 2. What figures (income and expenses) must I include in all my analysis??

3. Since I am a first time investor how do I assure myself that I am analyzing my CF and other projections correctly and accurately?

Thanks.
