Todays estimated value of an asset that probably isn’t for sale at any price is really an irevalent point. Might make a guy feel good, but it’s purchasing power if actually sold, might not have the buying power 4-5x of the time frame it was purchased. Inflation and devaluation of the $ are the biggest contributors to your perceived increase in net worth.
So it’s rental value ( or profit plus opportunity cost) is what one needs to look at for a realistic return on the investment.
