This has proven to a pain, too.The water bill arrives right at the end of the month, usually about the 25th.

I arrived as a freshman on Academic probation due to GPA.

I would estimate things like this as a first pass:-Rents => $30k/month or $360k/year-"NOI" (50% rule of thumb) => $180k/yearI would then capitalize the NOI at 10% to arrive at an offer of $1.8M.

When are you arriving?

As said before, watch, read, ear, absorb all the tiny bits of this site: It's a huge well of knowledge.When you arrive I would love to have a coffee (or a Belgium beer) with you. 

newbie here too. just wished to introduce myself. formerly from washington, dc, i'm just getting started in the staging arena in california and i'm looking to make some connections as well. you have arrived in the right place to foster what you seek!

      I too have no idea how you arrive at the $250/month CAPEX number.  

My water bill may be arriving high, but I took it as a learning experience.

So what is similar to your story is that we both would end our primary careers at a fairly young age (I’m not a sports guy but I’m guessing retirement age tends to arrive before grey hair) and could subsequently have long and successful investment careers. 

We should be arriving by 2:30 or so.
