An investment rating of a real estate property measures the property’s risk-adjusted returns, relative to a completely risk-free asset. Mathematically, a property’s investment rating is the return a risk free asset would have to yield to be termed as good an investment as the property whose rating is being calculated. For simplicity, it can also be assumed that the investment return is not correlated with other sources of wealth but represents 100% of the investor's wealth. A property’s investment rating is then a transformation of the risk adjusted averaged return to a single number that conveys the property’s long-term potential to yield profits.
it’s a part of e*trade which is also a low cost brokerage) and sign up for a free account. Play around there by looking at graphs and fundamentals. I think it’s also a good idea to pretend you have $10,000 and start buying and selling on paper. Keep track of where you are each day for a month… It’s a lot easier to lose play money then real money…. Step 5. It’s always a good Idea to see a CFP (certified financial planner). Their job is to work for your benefit, not to sell you investments. They can cover subjects like employee benefits, insurance, budgeting, living trusts, 401k, taxes and real estate as well as investment types and investment types to keep away from. Always strive to do your own research… you’ll find everyone sounds like an expert so take everything people tell you with a grain of salt. It’s not easy in the beginning but soon you will be the expert. Don’t get involved with futures, currency, options (unless you get stock options at work), commodities, annuities and other derivative type investments at this time. Good Luck
