I know your post is from a while back but wondering what metrics or resources you used to gauge the long term RE value movement in a particular market?

That little crack in your foundation (although hard to gauge the size in a photo) does not look very scary.It appears your house has a stucco envelope.

In my opinion it is neither unethical nor dishonest since the purpose is to gauge the interest in the market and to sell the housing at some point.  

If you got a team that you trust, that would alleviate the pressure.

That can put some pressure on things.It is all pretty easy as long as there is good communications.

You cover the floor, spray the solution on with a pump-up pressure sprayer, brush with a soft siding brush on a threaded handle, and wipe down multiple times with a sponge mop and a lot of water.

No pressure...just saying that's egregiously high compared to what you can get. 

Lots of municipalities don't want the warehouses any more....because of the low wages....they want higher skilled and higher waged jobs.I'm guessing these also probably draw from a wide range area of the people who work there, not just the immediate area.If anything may help apartments in the area.Now the HDQ2 project...that might be a different story...although from what I understand what happened was/is very different than what maybe they pitched or the local politicians thought it could be.Now I understand Amazon decided to spread people out all over the country for what typically were HDQ type jobs...so while NOVA was awarded a site...I'm don't think it will turn out like everyone thought.Many of those jobs are very good and high paying though...so I'm sure it added some pressure to an already hot market.   

If you live in an area with rodent pressure (like adjacent to a wildlife area or nearby an infested abandoned building) you can not let up on the vigilance.A pest control expert told me rodents will run along baseboards and often pick an inside corner as their "toilet" area.

Anyone have a rule of thumb to gauge potential profits here?
