Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the "Analyze" feature?
A. Our patent-pending flagship tool, eRealAnalyzer™, can be used to analyze a single property or a group of properties. This application provides an easy-to-use, intuitive "starting point" for analysis. If you were to use a spreadsheet or another software program to analyze a potential property for purchase, you would have to manually enter information into the application to get started. Then you would have to manually modify individual cells or input fields to compare different scenarios or different properties, and you might even have to change the program altogether to consider 5, 10, or 20 year scenarios separately.
With eRealAnalyzer™, all the information required for analysis has been pre-populated already! It's now up to you " just as it would be if you were using a different program " to verify and modify the input assumptions to become comfortable with properties and scenarios that are good purchase opportunities for you.
Q. How much does it cost to use eRealInvestor?
A. An eRealInvestor membership is $17.95/month or $99.95/year which allows you to enter your own properties to analyze and access to all charts and graphs, spreadsheets and more.
It is FREE to search our database of more than 400,000 investment properties nationwide and, if you are an agent, to upload your own properties to our database to attract serious investors.
