The Numbers

When it comes to the analysis of numbers many people have gotten rich. And I don't mean from real estate. I mean that spreadsheet programs and number crunching analysis gets too much attention from real estate scam artists. And I am mainly referring to costly real estate programs where complex spreadsheets, bar graphs and pie charts display income, expenses, and loan payments  in a myriad of ways.  There is a great epitaph that works here "Bull** baffles brains". For small multi-family or commercial projects ( under 1 million) the following example will be all that you will need to make a purchase decision. Whether you are buying in Simcoe County ( Barrie, Midland, Innifil or Orillia) this speadsheet appliues to any property.

Please keep in mind this is a simplified version and with the inclusion of joint ventures or complex VTB's this spreadsheet may not suffice.  But in my opinion it's all that you need to make a intelligent decision on a simple deal. ( Keep It Simple Stupid)

The financial statement is one of the first things you need to review before inputing information into any spreadsheet analysis. I will review the financial statement at a later session. It is a good idea to learn what to look for in a financial statement to access the properties strengths / weaknesses. I will first go through the basics of spreadsheet analysis by laying out necessary calculations and what they mean to your potential investment before looking a property financial statement. Learn the spreadsheet and you will learn what to look for in the financial statement.
