Axial worth it?

As mentioned above. Axial can be a helpful tool depending on your experience, and what you're looking for. For my purposes I've found it really good to provide me a repository of deals to help me improve how I look at CIMs, and trends across industries based on reviewing multiple CIMs within the same industries. What I don't like about it, are in fact the economics and the multitude of CIMS that will flood your inbox that may not be worth your time. So it definitely has its place. If youre limited on tools to source deals, it is definitely helpful, but you will pay a price. That said, the fee can just be rolled into the purchase price so the question to ask yourself is, if paying 2% of EV doesn't break the economics of your acquisition, but results in you shortening your time of getting yourself into a good seat of ownership, is it worth it to you, surprisingly the answer is not yes for everyone, so you kind of how to determine that for yourself. Again I think as a tool to help improve your ability to quickly assess CIMs and deals across industries for no upfront cost, I think it's a good tool.

Most of the deals Axial sends me have not been worth my time. Partially, my fault because the deal criteria I set was overly broad, so that I could get a feel for the type of deals they offered. However, there was one deal they sent that was very attractive, and I didn't see it anywhere else. Unfortunately, the seller pulled the deal because of unrealistic price expectations.
