I think it's really hard to say with any certainty because it depends on the asset mix. It's also going to matter what kind of timeframe you're looking at, because if you were looking at a one year figure from today, it's not likely that amazing. If you're looking at longer, say the past decade or so, you should likely be high single digits for an average.
(I'll just throw my self forward as a shameless plug if you want to sit down for an unbiased look)
