Occasionally, I will get an objection from an off-market homeowner that "might" sell saying...

Your objective- Learn, learn, learn.   

Many new investors claim to have analysis paralysis, but that's usually an excuse for either a lack of confidence (you need more meetups and more authentic relationships with other real estate investors) or shiny object syndrome (you want to house hack, but you like apartments, but also flipping, and what about storage).

The guy even makes calls to difficult seller's live right infront of you so you can hear what an expert does to overcome objectives..

No system is perfect, so don't waste your time chasing after the next shiny object.

OP the good thing about BP is varying opinions and also objectives.  

Like objectively bad compared to people in other professions.

Remember, no system is perfect, so avoid the temptation of constantly chasing after the next shiny object.

Quote from @Miguel Del Mazo: Thank you for the discussion @Corby Goade .I feel like we are biting off big pieces of a complex topic, and I think it would be helpful to focus on either the interests of the property owner or the MTR operator to simplify things,I think your greater objection to MTR arbitrage lies with why a property owner would want to willlingly enter into the agreement, so I will focus my reply on that. 

The main objective is regulation and taxation.
