The New York Times has an interactive feature that lets you compare the monetary aspects.

I just started interacting on BP this week and have already had a ton of advice tossed my way!!

Whether they will admit it or not, people who want to interact with you will be negatively affected by a grammatically error filled profile.I'm not saying you should have the world's best write up, I'm just saying that it would be very beneficial if you didn't have any grammatical errors in your profile.

Hi there, I'm new to BiggerPockets, and new to real estate investing as a whole.I'm a Marine Corps reservist and veteran, so I should qualify for a VA loan once I start full-time work in May.I'm interested in getting into multifamily units locally (I live in Provo, UT) pretty soon after qualifying for the loan.Thanks for having me here, and I look forward to meeting/interacting with you all !

A client of mine recommended the site and I look forward to interacting and engaging with others that are as passionate about real estate as I am.I have done a few flips but my strategy has been primarily buy and hold multi-family houses in the state of Jersey.

I look forward to interacting with all of you and would love to hear from other investors/landlords also in the Boise area.

I see there is a great possibility we will interact as we are both in the bay area.

Consequently, your 401K can hire a property manager, and then you get to interact with them the same way you do your contractors.You cannot slop paint on the walls, shovel the snow, cut the grass or sweep the walk.

I've now listened to all 68 (as of March. 10th, 2014) of their podcasts (some of them several times) and always am encouraged from them to make a post to this community and interact, despite being a 'newbie'.

Through basic networking and sharing my REI goals with most people I interact with, this deal fell in my lap because someone heard about the seller's situation and they thought I might be interested.
