The value isn't necessarily in the raw information, but in the sensible aggregation of the information and the methodological application of the information. 4.

People have these fantasies that they're going to build cheap rental empires in the Rust Belt while cruising around the world, maybe getting on their phones once a day with their GCs at their multiple rehab sites.So a lot of this came out right after David Greene came out with his book on the process, and I felt certain Greene was somehow whipping credible idiots up with his methodology.

The key to the analysis is in the methodology and accurate/relevant information. 

Maybe I will rethink my methodology.

While there is literally endless configurations one could use, their is prevailing methodologies as to how to best configure any 1 grouping, and to why do it that way, but as to the exact compilation of the "flowers" into any 1 "vase", the targeted use, conveyance and results will dictate. 

Over my past 25 retail sales, I've averaged nearly $25K in profit, so being conservative is working.I've hit $40K+ profit on two projects ($145K and $165K resales), I've hit $30-40K profit on 6 projects (resales from $95-175K), and have only come in less than $15K on two projects (my very first flip was one of them).So, I really like the methodology of shooting for "singles" but being conservative enough that they often turn into doubles and triples (and maybe an occasional home-run, depending on how you define it).

I have been reading a lot of books on Real Estate investing and methodologies, listening to the podcast's on BP and going to meet up groups to learn more. 

I am trying to better understand the methodology and analytics used by the appraisers to avoid unfavorable outcomes.

With this methodology I should be able to keep most of this capital in play and if I get good enough deals I should be able to return the money and also have 30 units by the time 3 years passes.

I have used three different analysis methodologies for determining the right price to pay for this property.
