I will say that anyone who is speculating for appreciation with non-cash flowing properties and is using leverage to do it is headed for disaster unless they have extraordinary timing.

If you can't show how the deal makes sense before you do it, don't do the deal.If your P&L is based on speculation or wishful thinking, don't do the deal.If you don't have multiple exit strategies, don't do the deal.However, if the only way you are going to be willing to invest is when you have guaranteed returns, then I think you're in the wrong business.
