Why thank you Benjamin, you are clearly as wise and brilliant as handsome, with many leather-bound books and an apartment that smells of rich mahogany!

If the closet is on an exterior wall then it has two strikes against it and will very likely grow the light grey/light green stuff you're seeing on doors, clothes, and especially leather shoes or boots.I wouldn't discount that there "might" be a leak somewhere.

It takes shoe leather and people skills, so if you're lazy don't do it.

Totally agree, you can't know your market sitting at a computer, real estate is a social business as Matt described, use some shoe leather, walk and talk, meet people, get belly to belly as they say. :)

I've got a little black leather journal I carry around with me that has some of my favorite quotes, Real Estate formulas, tips, etc.

Nothing unique, just good old-fashioned shoe leather and detailed analysis. 

Was just moving into my new apartment and found a complete leather sectional on craigslist for just $50.. some old lady just wanted it out of her living room.

You might add the "shoe leather" avenues:- going to the county superior court and collecting:- divorces- evictions, get the landlord contact (plaintif)- delinquent real estate taxesDoor knocking FSBO signs, calling FSBOs in craigslist, using peoplesmart.com searches on owners of tall grass houses...
