Here’s the deal (pun intended):Run the Numbers: If the deal makes sense on paper—cash flow, ROI, and all—trust the math, not just your gut.

This simply is because both ideas are just math operations and not real things in and of themselves.

I have yet to do the exact math.

I am a first-time investor and am looking for a location (hopefully) where I can get decent appreciation while not having the risk of crazy negative cash flow (like one sees when doing the math on opportunities in Seattle, for example).

I often use this to help calculate some quick math on deals.

Was just running some math tonight to put this all in context .. from what has been talked about 100 million was raised from all these folks..

It is all about the math and numbers now.

Today's math is 10-15% down, and re-house hack every 3-7 years.In italics, this is a fine goal but be realistic.

So there is inherent danger in commercial that never been talk about, becoz every GP is rushing to buy at discount->to rehab in hurry->to rent it out->to sell it quickly and do the same/repeat, this cycle can't be repeated in basic math because at one point, the cycle would go againts them.

It looks as if they hired out to H&R Block and didn't bother to check their math.
