I predict a bright future for you my friend.

Real estate isn't a tame animal but it is very predictable within ranges.  

Or trying to predict if you will still be able to address lead-based paint with encapsulation 10 years from now or if they will decide that full remediation has to be done.  

Property: Fourplex in Southern California, Inland Empire area; each unit is a 2 bed/1bath, shared laundry, in a B class neighborhood; current rents are 1050-1200; market rent could be closer to 1300/1400.Background: I used the information and numbers given on Redfin, to make these estimates; plus, I predict a sale price of $700,000 instead of the asking, $899,900.  

What makes that challenging though is I predict my cash flow will double each year at least.

I bought one property, 4-plex, which is about 1.4%, cash flow prediction around $600 per month.

Pro forma means projections or predictions of how you think you will operate the property in the future.

Representative John Boehner of Ohio, the House’s top- ranking Republican, said his party will be proven right in predictions that the stimulus legislation grew government and padded the federal deficit without creating jobs."

They are all trying to predict how much risk they face in doing business with you.

Yes some people can do it faster than that, but another more accomplished investor predicted it would be 1 year before we saw any income from this, back when we were only 4 months in.
