New Investor Program
Learn How to Find, Analyze, Finance, and Execute the Right Deal
The Zion Noah Capital New Investor Program is designed for aspiring real-estate investors who want a practical, step-by-step way to understand how deals are found, evaluated, financed, and carried through to an exit.
From your first property search to your financing strategy and exit plan, the program teaches you how to look at the entire deal—not just the purchase price.

- BRRRR
- Cash-to-close

- Buy box
- The specific criteria a property must meet before you pursue it — location, price, property type, and condition.
- Comps
- Comparable sales: recently sold properties similar to yours, used to estimate value.
- ARV (After Repair Value)
- The estimated value of a property after planned renovations are complete.
- LTV (Loan-to-Value)
- The loan amount compared to the property's value.

- DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio)
- A property's rental income compared to its loan payments and related expenses.

FAQs
New investor questions
Can I get financing with no investing experience?
New investors can submit a scenario for review. Eligibility depends on the selected lender's experience requirements, property, credit, liquidity, contractor or team, and proposed structure. No first-time-investor eligibility is implied. The planned New Investor Program focuses on education and financing readiness; enrollment is not open, and interest is not admission or loan approval.
Do I need prior real-estate experience to join the program?
The planned curriculum is designed for beginners and starts with choosing a market and defining a buy box. Enrollment is not open. Program interest does not establish admission or eligibility for any lender program.
What if my deal doesn't work?
We flag concerns in the information you share and explain which assumptions need more work — purchase price, rehab cost, rent or resale value, financing terms or exit. A preliminary review cannot uncover every issue or replace inspections and lender underwriting. Use it to consider renegotiating, adjusting your buy box, or moving on to the next property before making commitments.
