Why this site exists
I began investing here in 2008 and moved into the work full-time in 2010. Since then I have bought buildings, rebuilt rough properties, represented investors, managed rentals, and made enough mistakes to know where a clean spreadsheet can still mislead you.
This site combines that experience with reproducible market research. When the record is incomplete—as it is on parts of my own portfolio—I will tell you.
