You can't get away without learning how to calculate 10 year pro-forma Rates of Return.The calculations were done on both Stocks and Real Estate because it really doesn't matter.There is an investment of capital, there maybe some intermediate movement of cash flows, and then there is a return of that investment.Once you get all the cash flows, you just calculate an Internal Rate of Return (IRR).SIMPLE, right?!

Many investor's from NYC, Toronto, DC, Florida, California and internationally are investing here in Buffalo NY.

I interned at one of the greatest Emergency Management Companies and I have every but three certifications you could have in the fire service.

They do this for a living, come from families that do this for a living, have generational wealth and/or are syndicating deals out to domestic and international investors.

You had to put together the Advanced Business Model which takes your P&L and projects it out to 10 years, make certain assumption on Appreciations using Historic Data, calculate the 10 year Mortgage Balance, 10 year NOI and Cashflows, and boil it down to an Internal Rate of Return (IRR). 

Seems like a lot of international scam artists using Google phone numbers to try and extort funds.  

Those guys/gals have lots going on and often welcome young energetic hustling interns kinda thing.
