The tool
Or stop reading and run a deal.
RVP Underwriter does the whole thing: normalized NOI with every adjustment shown, researched red flags, three offer structures and a verdict in about two minutes. Free to start, no card.
Capital resources

Some readers are not stuck on underwriting, they are stuck on capital. I keep one pointer here for private money lending, which is a separate business from anything else on this site and not something I run.
Business and bridge funding
A lending marketplace I have pointed people toward. Do your own diligence on terms before signing anything, exactly as you would with any lender.
