In this paper, the followings are proved that: (1) Let X be the inverse limit of an inverse system $\{$X$_{\alpha},{\pi}^{\alpha}_{\beta},\Lambda\}$ and let the projection ${\pi}_{\alpha}$ be an open and onto map for each ${\alpha}\in\Lambda$, if X is $|\Lambda|$-paracompact (resp. hereditarily $|\Lambda|$-paracompact) and each X$_{\alpha}$ has property ${\cal P}$ (resp. hereditarily property ${\cal P}$), then X has also property ${\cal P}$ (resp. hereditarily property ${\cal P}$). (2) Let X=$\prod_{\sigma\in\Sigma}$X$_{\sigma}$ be $|\Sigma|$-paracompact (resp. hereditarily $|\Sigma|$-paracompact), then X has property ${\cal P}$ (resp. hereditarily property ${\cal P}$) iff $\prod_{\sigma\in F}$X$_{\sigma}$ has property ${\cal P}$(resp. hereditarily property ${\cal P}$) for each F$\in$[$\Sigma$]$^{<\omega}$, where ${\cal P}$ denotes one of the following four properties: expanability, discrete expandability, $\sigma$-expandability, discrete $\sigma$-expandability.
