The three parts

The Deal Verdict

A 0 to 100 Deal Score and a verdict label: STRONG DEAL, SOLID DEAL, NEEDS WORK, or HIGH RISK. The score is a weighted roll-up of how the deal performs against your buy box, not a generic rating. Change your criteria and the verdict moves with it, see Set your buy box.

Risk Flags

Below the verdict, Risk Flags name exactly which metrics fell short: the difference between "this is high risk" and "this is high risk because the DSCR is 0.98." The flags tell you what to fix or negotiate.

The metrics

Grouped the way an investor thinks, Survival (will it cover itself?), Equity (are you buying it right?), Returns (does it make money?), and Cash required. Each is colored green / yellow / red against your buy box.

Hover a metric's ⓘ for its definition and formula; in the app, hovering a value shows the exact math with your numbers plugged in.
