I’m trying to streamline my process for analyzing distressed properties and identifying value-add potential.

Hi everyone,I’m exploring a tool idea and would love some honest feedback from active investors.How do you currently analyze potential deals?

And definitely include a contingency reserve for unexpected issues that come up during the project.Overall, it sounds like your calculator is shaping up to be a really useful tool for analyzing deals realistically.All the best!

I recently finished a beta version of a small multifamily deal analyzer (1–5 units) that I thought this community might find useful.The focus was on making it simple and dynamic:- All assumptions go into the blue input cells.- Returns like IRR, cash-on-cash ROI, and equity multiple update instantly.- No need to adjust formulas — it’s plug-and-play.I’m currently sharing the lite version with a handful of investors to get feedback before rolling out the full release.If you’d like to test it out (and help me refine it by providing feedback), feel free to reply here or message me directly.Question for the group: What features do you find most important in a deal analyzer?
