But in general, some of the other product we had out performed these in general as far as time on market goes.

@Ludmila M.If you expect to make high returns, it is my understanding the roth ira will out perform a traditional ira. 

CA did add 464k jobs last year so by far the most in the US (about as much as the next biggest two states combined) and on a percentage basis, we have been outperforming the rest of the US for quite a few years now. 

@Kristen Silva STR in the right area will outperform a LTR multi family any day but they are not mutually exclusive.

Obviously the lower the price the higher the ROI and cash flow may seem on paper but in all reality the more expensive home with less cash flow and ROI will out perform them almost every time. 

I find that Multi family properties can out perform SFH 3:1 easily. 

There is no winning the cash flow mid west debate and the SF Bay area appreciation game.Unless you have lots of cash and credit so you can buy 20 to 50 homes in the MId west and manage them like a hawk,,, One or two homes in SF will out perform those in the long run over time...

@Stephen Hall My husband and I have had some success with new construction of townhomes in Utah county in the past few years, but our older single family homes still outperform them in terms of cash flow. 

My Carrot site out-performed competitors.I'd spend a bit more attention focusing on ranking or driving traffic verses (that's really the hard part).

With that being said, the owners who are willing to "do the right things" in a C-Class neighborhood can see a fairly stable performance that may even out-perform the B-Class properties.
