Control point 6 — Economics & Operations · Free working tools
Four tools that answer the questions operators guess at.
Each one runs entirely in your browser, uses the numbers and circumstances you enter, and shows you how it reached its result. No account, no email required. They exist because the most expensive mistakes in this business are made on assumptions nobody checked.
These tools provide general education. They are not legal, tax, licensing or investment advice, and they do not replace review by a qualified professional.
Underwriting
Group Home Deal Analyzer™
Enter the property, the resident economics and the operating costs. Get monthly gross revenue, break-even occupancy, net operating income, revenue per bed and the maximum sustainable housing payment.
Answers
- What occupancy do I need before this house covers itself?
- What is the most I can pay for this property?
- Where does the margin actually come from?
- What happens to the numbers if occupancy drops?
Classification
Group Home Model Finder™
Answer questions about who you plan to house and what services you plan to provide. Get an indicative model classification — always with a mandatory verification reminder.
Answers
- Which housing model does my plan actually describe?
- Am I describing housing or a regulated service?
- What should I ask my state about?
- Where is the line between co-living and licensed care?
Acquisition
Deal Control Finder™
Describe the seller's circumstances and the property situation. Get the control structures worth exploring with professional review — master lease, option, seller financing, JV or conventional.
Answers
- Which structure fits this seller?
- Should I be asking for a lease or a purchase?
- What terms should I raise first?
- Where does the legal review need to focus?
For property owners
Deal Control Calculator™
The landlord-facing tool. Put a conventional single-family rent next to a shared-housing scenario on the same house — with the added operating cost shown honestly beside the upside.
Answers
- What could this property produce beyond traditional rent?
- How much of the gap is eaten by operating costs?
- What does the same house look like under each scenario?
- What should I raise with an owner before they commit?
How they work
Transparent arithmetic, not a black box.
Every tool shows its formula basis so you can check the result, argue with it, and change the inputs that matter. If a number looks wrong, you can see exactly where it came from.
You enter your numbers
Real figures from the property and the market you are actually looking at — not illustrative defaults.
The tool computes
Standard operating arithmetic, applied consistently and shown step by step so you can follow the logic.
You get a defensible answer
Not a verdict — a starting point you can take to an investor, a lender, a partner or your own spreadsheet.
Be clear about the limits
What these tools cannot do.
Go deeper
The tools tell you the numbers. The programmes tell you what to do with them.
Group Home Secrets™ covers the operating business. Deal Control Secrets™ covers the real-estate strategies. Together they are the system the tools are built to support.
