What the heck do all those Abbreviations Stand for?

Quite a few new users (and plenty who have been around for a while) are confused by certain abbreviations that are used on BiggerPockets all the time. 

Well, we've put together a list of these abbreviations, so that you, our readers, posters, and members, can have a quick way to check out what these arcane abbreviations actually stand for.

Special thanks to our awesome development team for putting this together for the benefit of our users like you!

Try it out - just hover your mouse over some of these abbreviations below to get a quick look at what they stand for!

HELOC

ROI

ARV

FMR

IRR

NOI

Oh, and of course like with any new launch I'm sure we missed a whole bunch of abbreviations. If you want to throw out a few more that we should add to the list (we've got about 80-100 abbreviations listed currently), make sure it is currently NOT in the list (meaning, you see it in a post, hover the mouse over it, click, but do not get an explanation for said abbreviation), and then reply here suggesting we add it!

HOVER doesn't always pop-over the definition, but just changes the cursor to ?

Btw:  I'm sure you're aware that mobile (ie touch devices) can not support any mouse over events.
