And 36 Other Key Financial Measures" by Frank Gallinelli.

Stocks are in the top quintile of historical valations based on all of these measures, and this makes it HIGHLY likely that stocks will perform poorly over the next decade Bonds at 2% on the 10yr treasury, same story, very expensive.I know this is off-topic for this thread, but I'm concerned that folks just hear this "stocks have averaged 9%" mantra from the brokerage community and go with it.

You use the property's potential income to determine why you'd want to buy it, how you're going to hold it, for how long, how you want to structure financing and exit strategies for your best benefit, and to measure your profit potential!

One story much easier than 2 or more storyIF we are talking center support,,,likely things to look for is rotten or termited shortened wood posts,,rusted out pipe supports,,sway back beams,,an IF its a crawl space probably NO footer support under whatever is blocking it up.Easy thing to do is go under house,pick open area,,hang a string a distance like inch,3/4,,,2 inches,whatever is easy and have block to measure by. across the joists in a couple different ways or directions and SEE how much its swaying,and where it looks like its cause.I am NOT saying an engineer isnt the RIGHT thing to do,,,just look and maybe YOU can suggest to engineer things that cut the fees to a minimum.I had a small house they set on conc blocks with nothing under them down center support,,,they got wet from who knows what,,like lots of rain and sunk in the mud within a few years of being built,then the whole house sway backed all the years it was old.

Arnt these the markets you want to be in with appreciation in mind.It's true that these cyclical markets will give your far better returns when measured in terms of (potential) appreciation.

,IT TAKES AS LONG TO POST ON POSTLETS AS IT DOES RESPONDING HERE.I have not done any specific measure, but I will say that my # of applicants definitely got bumped by postlets and I heard anecdotally that quite a few tenant did hear about it that way.

o I didn't mention that they are giving me the leg work like leads to call and follow up on and go out to do measurements.

This is more of a true measure of investment performance.

Every free moment you have :)Start with going to the property and taking alot of pictures and as many notes and measurements as you can think of.
