take away is you bought a top end rental like Curt and @Chris Clothier recommend not a bottom end MOrris thing.. which none of us recommend.. contrats.. little recapture but appreciation is an important part of the equation and maybe now we can say markets are not flat like we used to say a few years back.. cash flow and appreciation.Nice one.

Zero interest in hearing anything you've got to say as it's clear you have no respect for other people's time, money & business. 

.: After thousands and thousands of investor calls (All recorded) and emails along with a tonne of data tracking, etcJust for the record a ton is a US measure = 2000 lbsA tonne is a metric/Australian = 1000kg = 2205 lbsAlthough neither one would really apply to data tracking except metaphorically HahaSometimes I say a ton and other times a tonneAlways go between the two with my metaphors Will have to use “a ton” moving forward Think like the Romans right?

Account Closed Assessed price $60,000Purchase price $40,000Difference $20k, 33%That would be worth the reduction...I would say a $10k or 10% reduction is about the lowest I mess with, most of the time these are 25%-50% spreads and definitely worth the time.To answer the question "Can you go lower than the purchase price" - I was successful arguing a turn-key sale sold to an owner who didn't know the market resulting in a +$50k value increase which the school board was pursuing an increase in.

Most the prices they say a property sold for is wrong, and zestimates are a joke. 

I would say a big factor is if you want more appreciation or more cashflow.

I will say, as far as cash flow goes the numbers here are a lot different than they are in California (fundamentals remain the same.) 

SOLVEDbut you aren't going to change the vocabulary of everyone else because just it makes you uncomfortable then.and since you brought up the cringe worthy virtue signaling of your families military service that somehow validates your position to be elevated above anyone else's and how they should speak, let me say as a veteran myself, it doesn't bother me at all.

If it has please come back on this forum and say a few words @-ing the cynics, lolI personally know a man who pursued his dream for almost 15 years and that project has never started.

You forgot to mention that they also say a lot to look at areas within 1-2 hours driving and you will most likely find a market with cash flowing properties.
