# Compare several purchase properties

Compare opportunities using the same assumptions so the differences are meaningful.

## Create a consistent comparison

1. Analyze and save each property.
2. Use the same rental strategy and income period.
3. Use comparable down-payment assumptions.
4. Apply the same expense categories and reserve treatment.
5. Review income, cash needed, payment, cash flow, and available score details together.

## Look beyond the highest score

Consider operating restrictions, repairs, seasonality, management demands, and confidence in the income evidence. A property with a larger estimated cash flow may also need more cash or more operational work.

## Prepare the shortlist

Identify the strongest candidates and the unanswered questions for each. Use the property comparison available in your workspace where supported. If a comparison control is unavailable, retain the individual reports and request help reviewing them together.
