How did the Bush administration do with the same post 9/11 intelligence community?

Intelligence, by the way, in one field, i.e. medicine, law and etc, does not mean you are well versed in public policy or matters on the domestic agenda.

From your title to this post, there are no dumb questions, only dumb answers.That said, Josh gave you an intelligent answer. market values are determined by recent comparables for residentail properties and valued on income for commercial properties.That said, this is a 4-plex and close to a commercial multi family so using an income approach on the buy end is important.Calculate the amount of rent you expect for each door, deduct half for all expenses including operating, vacancy, and capital (this is just an average), then times by 12.

What I am saying is, hey I can't stand it when people try to speak intelligently about something case in point..." banks-need-are-help" and they can't use correct grammarl.

First off, I really want to keep this civil, intelligent discourse, please.

I have a question: There are a lot of terriffic and very intelligent investers on this site what I would and I'm sure many other potential investers would like to know is ( How did all of you start out with your 1st commercial family property?

Something I came across called "The Intelligent Anode", designed to alert when the sacrificial anode has worn to the point of needing replacement:http://www.biggerpockets.com/links/6730

As J mentioned, there are so many more questions that need answering before intelligent advice can be given.

Look Biff, you can debate without making up lies...it just takes a little bit of extra effort and intelligence...

But, don't assume your price is accurate for the market just because a bunch of realtors told you it was (while Mike sounds like a good example of an intelligent and highly experienced real estate agent, unfortunately, 95% of rest of the agents out there are just the opposite).
