My goal is to generate some kind of monthly revenue that keeps up with inflation while the initial investment appreciates as well, so in 20 years for example, the value of the building will be greater.3.

BP Community,

BP Family,Yesterday, I posted that we registered our new business in this post:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/223/topics/111187-arrived-at-next-level-and-rising-hats-off-to-bpNow, I'd like your help: I have started laying out various logos for Top Performing Properties (or TPP).

But in general, over the very long term, appreciation happens, even if only because of inflation.

The actual could be inflated by having tenants that only recently moved in, but may be at close to the upper end of the market and may not be the best tenants.

Remember if inflation hits, both property value and rent will increase, but the tax increase in CA is capped.

That is les than 3.6% of rent per year, in pesos, with a, let's say 30% inflation rate yearly.So I'm guessing that is not a good cash flow.

You can also see the 40 year Dollar chart where the dollar rises between 6-7 years and drops 9-10 years every cycle.

Labor, food, lease, and theft will make or break any restaurant whether that is a quick service restaurant or a full sit down type with medium to higher end type dishes.Because of crops and droughts many types of food prices are inflating heavily and prices are not going up to maintain profits.

I estimate real values based on taking '00 prices, and adjusting for inflation.
