Data collected were analysed with the frequency mean and growth rate.\u0000\u0000\u0000Findings\u0000All the methodological approaches adopted for analysis displayed varying performance results. No particular sub-market maintains the same ranking position in any of the approaches. The developmental phases previously used as an indication of yield in the study area do not correspond with the status of rental income of sub-markets. Yield has been observed to be a mere attraction to property investment; it does not translate to income growth. Mean income (though a good indicator of changes in rental income) is not a reliable indicator of growth in income, and growth in the rate of income omitted the changes in rental income during the holding period.\u0000\u0000\u0000Research limitations/implications\u0000The study was restricted to historical rental income data on a block of flat-type residential property, and it does not include capital value analysis or inquire into the factors responsible for variation in rental income during the study period.

This will simplify investors’ rental income characteristics of investment towards a better understanding of rental property investment analysis.

These steps facilitate stable exposure of the N-terminus of Mprt to the extracellular milieu where it interacts with ligands. Previously, we found that inactivation of SrtA in GAS cells eliminated Mprt CW transpeptidation but effected little reduction in its cell surface exposure, indicating that the C-terminus of Mprt retained in the cytoplasmic membrane (CM) extends its N-terminus to the cell surface. Herein, we assessed the effects of mutating the Thr³⁵⁵ residue in the WT SrtA consensus sequence (LPST^355∗GEAA-) in a specific Mprt, PAM. In vitro, we found that synthetic peptides with mutations (LPSX³⁵⁵GEAA) in the SrtA cleavage site displayed slower cleavage activities with rSrtA than the WT peptide.

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, there was no scholarly literature related to an economic appraisal of these risk reduction interventions.

Previous literature in the form of systematic reviews, individual research and case studies, together with liquefaction risk and loss modelling literature, was used to develop a theoretical model of CBA for earthquake-induced liquefaction mitigation interventions. The model was tested using a scenario in a two-day workshop.\u0000\u0000\u0000Findings\u0000Because liquefaction risk reduction techniques are relatively new, there is limited damage modelling and cost data available for use within CBAs. As such end users need to make significant assumptions when linking the results of technical investigations of damage to built-asset performance and probabilistic loss modelling resulting in many potential interventions being not cost-effective for low-impact disasters. This study questions whether a probabilistic approach should really be applied to localised rapid onset events like liquefaction, arguing that a deterministic approach for localised knowledge and context would be a better base for the cost-effectiveness mitigation interventions.\u0000\u0000\u0000Originality/value\u0000This paper makes an original contribution to literature through a critical review of CBA approaches applied to disaster mitigation interventions.
