Real Estate Investor Tools You Need Before You Get Started

In this series we are looking at How to Go From $0 to $10,000 a Month as a Real Estate Investor.

Real Estate Analysis Spreadsheets 

1. Opportunity Evaluator 

We use this everyday and it’s great tool made by Scott Scheel of Commercial Property Academy.  Use this tool to evaluate multi-family properties and determine cash flow, projected cash flow, debt coverage, expenses and value.

2. Residential Fix and Flip Deal Analyzer

This is a great spreadsheet that you can enter in a range of values along with projected expenses resulting in potential profit.  You can use this spreadsheet to determine what price to offer on a bank owned home.

Renovation Tools

1. Work Order

We use this spreadsheet to submit to our contractor.  He will then give us a detailed bid with a contract.
