Is This a Good Real Estate Deal?

A simple framework showing how to decide whether a property is actually a good investment instead of just looking cheap.

Start with three numbers

Every deal starts with purchase price, rehab cost, and exit value or income potential. If those numbers are weak, the deal is weak.

Add real-world costs

Closing costs, holding costs, contingency, and selling costs are where many deals fall apart.

What this teaches

A good deal is not just low price. It is margin, clarity, and room for mistakes.
