A bit higher rate, much lower than rates are likely to be once inflation hits, locked in at an historically low rate, if not quite as low as non-commercial personal loan (which is what almost everyone gets and is what causes DoS issues). 

Generally, what I am looking for is not better returns (as long as 1% rule applies and there's positive cash flow), but rather:-strong rental area with rents historically going up-long-term tenants that would treat the property well (NO STUDENTS)@Jeremy Lee Thank you for your input Jeremy!

They had a full page list of their full-cycle (sold) transactions and the historical results.

We market them as a historic home and they typically fetch $150 more per unit.

If you can take advantage of the historically weak dollar, you can find some GREAT opportunities if you choose the right property and invest with the right mind-set.

There are historical rents in place on some of those where in exchange for excess TI paid by the developer the tenant started with inflated rents for the market and hoped to make it up over time with increasing sales.

I have mountains of historical MOB data (both national and based on regions/MSAs) and I write a bi-annual national medical office newsletter covering sales, development and other trends. 

A good way would be to look at historical data and calculate a variance.
