A few suggestions which I think would enhance biggerpockets (some taken from vBulletin), in no particular order:* multi-quote - the ability to select multiple posts for quoting* kudos - ability to register approval of a post, or agreement with a point, and then count these and somehow rate posters - just provides more incentive to share and try to be constructive and helpful * ability to view the forum in wide screen format (maybe you can but I can't see how - the forum text only takes up about 30% of the width of my screen)* more/better emoticons - happy to suggest some if you like ;)* also I'd like emoticons inserted where the cursor is, rather than always at the end of the text (ie if you edit and want to insert an emoticon in an earlier para, you seem to be only able to do it by cutting and pasting the emoticon, which is always inserted at the very end of the whole post)* I imagine this is related to the fact that whenever you format some text, your cursor is moved to the very end of the post; I'd rather the cursor be left where it was just prior to applying formatting (eg bold)* ability to report/hide abusive posts, to try and stop conversations degenerating into slanging matches :roll: Love the forum - thanks, Josh.

I give more weight to solds than listings, but if there are multiple listings of comparable properties in the same area, then they define an upper bound on the value.Based on that data, I'd say $70K for the first deal is not a good deal at all
