I get threatened with law suit semi regular, but never get sued (but I do have an umbrella coverage that provides peace of mind). 

With regular houses it was within 48 hours.

I am a regular listener of BP podcasts on Stitcher. 

These parameters will help decide what kind of yields you are searching for, which you can use to filter down your list of macro markets.Then I would start by looking at the macro market's fundamentals, that is the population, job and income growth over time.After that, I would look to see what the rents and home prices are and how those are trending as well.I would do a similar analysis, but at the sub-market level for the metro area you are considering investing in.Other metrics that I find valuable to understand are household income, poverty, unemployment, and educational attainment.

But honestly, I just don't find their prices to be any better than the Big 3 wholesalers (costco, sam's, bj's). and also, their site UI is pretty horrendous to use - i find it much easier to search, sort and find items on costco, sams & bjs web sites than hdsupplysolutions.com.For regularly restocked supplies (TP, paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc), does anyone know of anywhere cheaper to buy than the big 3 wholesalers' web sites?
