For my own organisation, I've decided to summarize below...

I copied a quick historical piece that we have on our website below that summarizes the Starker family's contribution to delayed exchanges; Starker Family Case Sets Precedent The tax court cases and corresponding decisions, including an appellate decision from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals resulting from the now famous Starker family tax-deferred like-kind exchange transactions, changed the tax-deferred like-kind exchange industry forever. 

However our own cash (the 20-30% downpayment) is presently returning near 6%, making the opportunity cost of an investment greater than just the cost of borrowing alone.Articulated well in summarizing most of the points above, @Roy N..

You can of course do this by opening up a specific property on sites like Zillow and Redfin, but what I'd like is to see this summarized for multiple properties without having to dig into each individual listing, to get a quick idea of which properties are likely listed at or below their actual values.Ryan

It summarizes what to expect with these properties quite well and not just in Birmingham.

@Joe S.Just to summarize.

Here’s a link to a good article (http://www.flooret.com/vinyl-basics/) about this and a table summarizing the difference in wear layer thicknesses;Wear-layer in mmWear-layer in milTypical Commercial Warranty0.1 mm4 milNone, or 3-year “light” use0.3 mm12 mil5 year “light” use0.5 mm 20 mil10 year0.7 mm28 mil15 year1.0 mm40 mil20+ year

In a sentence or two, they summarize a much longer report.

It is filled with lots of fluff, and the main points could probably be summarized in just a few pages.

Sooo ... now do I have this summarized correctly ?
