Had to use 4 different calculators, re-enter the same data each time, and manually compare results in a spreadsheet.My workflow:BiggerPockets calculator for conventionalFHA.com calculator for FHA loansRandom DSCR lender site for non-QMExcel to compare everything side-by-sideRip my hair out...I'm curious how everyone else handles this.

I'm on a handful of off market email lists, but I have a feeling that even those are being combed through prior to being sent out. 

I thoroughly enjoyed the whole process, even though at times I wanted to tear my hair out :) . 

Debating one over the other is splitting hairs, if you ask me.

In the meantime, I would comb your local market's investor facebook page to find investor deals and get into the habit of analyzing deals and then running it by a trusted investor or agent.

Now, if you run a title report and there is a lot of "hair" (liens, etc) on the deal, you wait until the auction because an auction will clear up a lot of the liens.Buying at auctin is a little more complex than most people think. 

Other situations where typical lending situations don't fit can lead to "under market" deals, but they only seem under market because there are so few buyers that can actually take it down given the hair on the deal.

No appraisals etc.On foreclosure rescue when it was legal in Or Wa  I would routinely save these deals one day before the auction and sometimes an hour before.. it was hair on fire but we did lots of them that way and actually the vast majority.. the owners dont get real serious until about 48 hours to 72 hours before the prop is oging to sale.
