While doing some of my financial modeling on a real estate property we are finding that a deal in Lubbock is passing our initial checks as it relates to the financial performance we are seeking.

The market is saying that is a relatively risky propertyIf the property sells for $1,250,000 that is a 4% cap rate and the marketplace is saying it believes that to be a pretty safe investment.
