Ignore the noise of higher cost = higher value or lower cost = low value.  

This very comforting device alerts you if the noise level is above a threshold. 

When deals keep falling through, it can feel like a grind.

wheels of justice grind slowly in some cases. some cases when perpetrator pleads out they can get right to their prison sentence very quickly within 6 months or so.  

Agents may also have macro data on historical data, local median sale prices, absorption rate, etc to help with your analyses and projections.Networking/build a team: Attend local meetups, virtual meetups and stay active on forums like this.A lot of this will be done in front of a PC unfortunately but if you cut out the noise, you'll be able to maximize your time.Lastly, something that has helped me tremendously with respect to focus and improving efficiency is the pommodor technique. 

Congratulations to everyone who ignored the noise, bought, and held. 

I make unpredictable little noises when the cash smacks into my hand, a little giggle sometimes, a quiet little satisfied grunt others, a throaty, "Ohhh yyyyeeeeeeeeaaahhhhhh..."

All of that means you should continue to report anything you see, don't become disheartened if not everything gets taken down, and mostly just ignore the noise.

I used to have a Minute sensor (for noise monitoring) in a unit located in a rough part of town, and guests would simply take it down.

I have been interview by the criminal IRS investigators 2 times now in 5 years still nothing. these things grind quite slowly and it could turn out the money went were it was suppose to and they made bad business decisions and will just roll it up to a big bankruptcy wipe everyone out and continue on with a new business we see that all the time.. there is no debtor prison that's why we have business BK laws  .. allows one to crater the company and any debt or equity and then start all over.. kills a reputation but you don't go to prison..
