Most deals you will look at will be a pass, but all the sudden one will stand out - because you know what you are looking for and what the average benchmark is. 

What are the bench marks in the short term or long term that you could hit as you grow in this business? 

If that number is ~15% then you're ok as that is considered the benchmark, but I have seen many clients (myself included) see well into the 40%'s on the right property.

Answer those, then we can get to your income and standard benchmark checks, but not before. 

Those are benchmarks for a good market to invest in.

It was the eighth time this year the benchmark mortgage rate slipped to a record low.

According to Freddie Mac, the most popular 30-Year fixed rate increased to 2.88% (but still below the 3.00% benchmark), the 15-Year fixed rate increased to 2.44%, and the 5/1 adjustable rate increased to 2.9%.

TICs are increasingly common in the LA market however we don't yet have visibility into the process of how they are implemented and processed.Thanks @Jesse Daconta - these are some super interesting and helpful industry benchmarks.

July’s forward progress is welcome, but measured against historical benchmarks, the California labor market remains very much in the ICU.

-can you set some benchmark costs when you go in, to throw some lower costs out.
