How do you do due diligence for fair long term value?

I'm in the midst of revisiting Warren Buffet's Interpretation of Financial Statements book in order to be able to do my own due diligence in finding fair value within a company.

The book covers fundamentals like; durable competitive advantage, consistent profitability, and efficient capital management, however I'm very green and wanted to open a discussion as to what metric other traders consistently look for and how they determine if a company is being offered at a fair price?

For example, what metrics would tell you that a company is potentially overvalued therefore you should consider waiting to see if price were to go lower before buying, if all other fundamentals are in place?
