I think in the coming months to half-year we will certainly see more deals hit the market as owners deal with bad buys overvalued purchases, heavy competition in development (ground-up) - mass unemployment - if you do not follow the trends but stick to the fundamentals of a deal structure you should fair well. 

So let's look at the fundamentals of what we've been told:Consistent, reliable income: $3000/monthOccasional, unreliable income: $1025-$2083/monthCost of living: ?

The other, and possibly even more fundamental to reducing barriers for opportunities to let people prosper, is implementing sound budgetary practices.By reducing government spending through things like freezing new hires and pay raises and placing a moratorium on incurring any new taxpayer-funded debt, there are plenty of opportunities to cut taxes.Local governments should volunteer for third-party audits to determine where areas of waste can be eliminated along with expensive lobbying contracts and longevity pay.

I love this market because as has been mentioned here the fundamentals are strong, by which I mean there's a diverse economy characterized by durable industries including tech, healthcare, manufacturing, distribution, etc, there's population growth with young professionals moving into the city, the cities are walkable and well planned, there aren't natural disasters such as hurricanes, fires, earthquakes, etc, to worry about, and the quality of life is generally high.

I’d argue it’s worth closer to 60k then 75k as the market fundamentals today are better then 2006 since we don’t have all the liar loans. 

From my POV, the more a partner understands the fundamentals of analysis, due diligence and exit strategies, the easier my job is to have them understand a good deal when I bring it to the partnership. 

I think the same fundamentals of real estate investing still apply. 

There are plenty of books on fundamentals of residential construction.

@Cass LowrieYou're fundamentally misled by the gurus and podcasts.

Now I have a basic grasp on the fundamentals.
