Real estate investors often focus on techniques that they lose sight of the important issue: Is this a good deal? Learning to recognize a good deal takes research and, above all, experience. There are some questions you should answer in order to be sure that the real estate contract you are going to sign is a good deal.

First: Will this property provide income? Well, that depends on a lot of factors, such as the strength of the local rental market, the interest rate on the financing, and how much of a down payment you make. It also depends on whether it is a single-family or multi-family dwelling.

Second factor influencing the quality of the deal is leverage. The latter is important for any investors because as a rule the less cash you put down on each investment, the more investments you can have. If the properties go up in value, your rate of return goes up exponentially. However the contrary is true too. Be cautious.

Third: “Does the property you are purchasing have equity?” There are many ways to create equity, but buying into equity is your best way. Find a motivated seller who wants out of his property and is willing to give up his equity for less than full value. Or, buy a property that needs work that can be done for 50 cents on the dollar or less.

Fourth is appreciation. If you buy in the right neighborhoods in the right stage of a real estate cycle it will result in appreciation and profit..

At last, risk is a consideration that too few investors consider. Now ask yourself, "What if my assumptions are wrong?" In other words, do you have a "plan B"? If you bought for appreciation and the property did not appreciate in value, can you rent for positive cash flow? You can avoid many issues if you ask this last question and plan for a way out.
