@Fred Heller Yes sir Houston just keeps growing out, and the Grand Parkway is becoming a warehouse and business park magnet.

Similarly I just heard about a Sunnyvale home that sold for 800k over asking price because it's close to the new Apple Campus.

You are talking about apples and oranges with flips and rentals.

Comparing prices on housing when interest rates are different is like comparing apples to oranges.To clarify, I am specifically talking about creative finance, the subject of the question at hand.

But now i see how things work, i was comparing apples and pears there (from the business point)

If not, then you really aren't comparing apples to apples.

Hey @Aaron Nordgren - Apple made us remove the link to the podcast from our app.  

But if you think of it like buying a billboard, it could make sense.I have noticed that even people that license our brand will be hesitant to put even simple car magnets on their __________________ (fill in the blank: BMW, Audi, etc.).  

My questions are whether or not that's a good idea, whether I should count that interest only payment as a business expense when comparing properties or should I exclude that when comparing, so that I have an apples to apples comparison and a true cap rate in the traditional sense?  

To throw out ideas like the present value of money in relation to a sale price, is apples and oranges.
