Quote:

“We analyze the rent roll and try to assess risk to the upside. So the first is comparing what the sellers in place lost to leases—consider that the least risky then we take a look at a more risky bucket of upside…then we take a look at the riskiest of the three which is the value we are going to create with amenity improvements or whatever we are going to do.”
