With the money and academics potentially pouring into RPI and Troy, NY — Do you think these markets will actually explode in the next 20 years?

Currently we are looking into a couple of properties in Zip code 43206 and wondering if you can share inputs about the area from the point of view of safety, tenant pool & growth/appreciation.I have lived in the zip code of 43206 for over four years.

Hi All, my names Josh, I'm a kiwi living in the UK building the portfolio with a unique business model which brings into other investors into a compoinding model with both Capital and perpetual returns.i have a well developed process and network here in the UK and New Zealand, wanting to explore the US market.

The insurances like AAA are strict on the paint, roof, plumbing, electric etcThe houses are in Stockton, California.Thanks

On Page 134, he lists the following when analyzing a deal:Sales Price: $132,490.00Sales Expenses: $17,000.00Loan Balance: $55,004.72Total Invested Capital: $35,950.00Profit: $24,535.28I agree with his thought process here when he calculates net profit, but I'm trying to verify the net profit by adding up all the sources of income over the past five years in his example by doing the following:Appreciation over five years=$12,490 (see chart on Page 133).Cash flow ($297.73x12x5)=$17,863.80 over five years.Loan paydown: ($60,000-55,004.72)=$4,995.28 over five years.Sales Expenses are still $17,000.Doing the math, profit= $12,490+$17,863.80+$4,995.28-$17,000=$18,349.08There is a $6,186.20 difference from the net profit he calculates.My question is: Is this $6,186.20 difference due to the forced appreciation gained in the property from the rehab he does in this example?

I am glad I was in a position to do my first several flips with personal cash and one investor.  

My best advice is understand zoning and density to make proper land valuation, then proper DD.

Our local market in Columbus has been pretty incredible with price points lower than markets like Austin or Nashville, with a better economic outlook than similar large cities of over 900k people.
