Week 8 - Getting To The Number

Real estate investing is a numbers game. You’re not a real investor if you don’t know how to factor in costs in any deal. Even business owners understand the numbers involved in a transaction and how to put those numbers together. Knowing your numbers is one of the most critical parts of investing. One wrong move and you might end up selling at a loss.

Today, Don and Ryan discuss the importance of getting the numbers you need before, during, and after every deal. They describe the many costs investors need to know by heart as well as the ideal percentages and ratios with each one. They also share their experiences when it comes to crunching the numbers as well as a few tips on making a deal even more profitable.

“There’s an opportunity cost to the cost of money - even if it’s your own money.” - Don Costa
