Ideally you'd want within a few blocks, maybe no more than half a mile for the comp to be accurate

The problem is these are automated values that don't factor things in like views, condition, or even if one block of homes sells for more or less than another. 

Just so you all know, my brother was blocked by a moderator (I wonder who), but wanted to convey his response here (see below). 

In this county there was only 1 McDonalds that close and it closed to move a block away at a traffic light, from there former location in the middle of the block not at a traffic signal. 

I own out of state as well, but it's a blocking and tackling, hands on, dirt in your fingernails game if you want to earn the return to make it worthwhile. 

@Jay Hinrichs, you where right.You know I've been around the block long enough now and have seen a lot of $#@%Gino is a top bloke.Very genuine approach to coaching and no BS guru hardcore sales crap.Hat's off 🙏

And sometimes you are blocked because the wall you need to put it on has a window.    

But if it looked like my calendar could do a turn on one of those days, I would ask my cleaner if they would be willing to do it for the extra pay or block that day.

I'd plan to manage it myself, as I know it very well and it's a few blocks away.

where do I start, Outdated fuel box need to be replace, had to add a French drain due to flooding. etc etc  I think I would of been better off being my own GC doing everything myself.
