Rent can vary from one house to the next on the same street depending on the condition of the property, square footage, etc.

I've also recently started investing in the stock market, and while I really enjoy that, the returns can vary greatly depending on the overall market atmosphere.

I know this can vary depending on the demands of a particular property, but I'm just looking for general thoughts on this.  

I've been to Pittsburgh a few time, to attend Steelers games, and I've noticed homes vary greatly even within the same block.

I know this is active investing so obviously everyone is leveraging expertise and connections too; still, just trying to wrap my head around the ballpark numbers in this space.Edit: Here's a third way to ask: In one of the above categories, what's the ROI you're likely to see if a given deal ends up being 1) an average deal, 2) a home run, or 3) goes way south...and what proportion of each do you tend to get in that category?

@Shyla Hyde  The exact details will vary by state law.

Hi @Sandy UhlmannPricing on NP 1st's will vary a bit depending on foreclosure timeline, state, and values.
