@Javi Chipi the "tests"/"rules" you are referring to are ok rules of thumb / a good place for newbies to start thinking about the business, but every investor has to decide for themselves their own criteria, and do more rigorous math to see if a deal fits their criteria. It may not make sense to you, but if it makes sense to the owner/buyer that's all that really matters. If you are having trouble finding deals that fit your criteria, that's because there are lots of people out there investing with less stringent criteria. Your choice is to either change your criteria, or just keep pushing to find deals that meet your existing criteria.

Welcome @Lavonn Lewis! lots of great advice on this thread already. My suggestion is to start doing something...anything! Don't be paralyzed by fear or not knowing exactly what the right next step is...You will only figure it out by going through the motions.
