If the answer to all three is Yes, I buy.And let life unfold.I have NO IDEA what the ultimate return will be….NONE….And neither does any other investor if they are honest…..most crystal balls I find are broken.But if one acquires the property is a solid long term manner based on fundamental investing principles and is never forced to sell…History indicates the long term trajectory of price and rents are up.In my experience, real estate follows cycles……. 6 or 7 years of a bull market, 1 or 2 years down (though the up is always larger than the down), 1 or 2 years of flat which then sets the floor for the next run up.
