The S&P 500 and the Dow 30 is a ridiculous benchmark respective of the universe of over 13,000 stocks globally.  

The Economic Evaluation is based upon the NOI produced, so $/sqft can vary all over the place, while NOI * GRM is a good benchmark of what the price should be. 

But they are still good benchmarks to start from when evaluating a property.Best!

It would be great to know a benchmark to use.

I was laid off from Benchmark mortgage company into 2007 after only 14 months on the job.

Since a lot of it is wet towels it can't really sit for long either.PM me if you're interested in benchmarking or collaborating.  

The market has changed, I've changed, the competition has changed, etc.There's no benchmark that would make any sense for you to use -- you just need to make sure that your offers are as good as they can be for you to make the margins you want to make and then accept whatever percentage of successes that yields (or make more offers to compensate for low percentages).

Maybe put some feelers out as suggested earlier for a management for % equity partner with benchmarks while allocating some of that walk away $ for a last turn-around strategy then re-evaluate a sale. 

Now my question is, what is a good benchmark ROI for rental properties?
