I’m thinking about replacing the windows with more modern, efficient and functional windows but everyone seems to coo over the notion of original windows.

There are ways for everyone to work together and create win-win-wins if all parties decided to put aside their preconceived notions and collaborate. 

Realtors hold clients very close to the chest and have perceived notions that may not be true.I lived through much of this as while I had a mortgage company and my parents were Realtors and I had to overcome the same issues meeting with buyers represented by other Realtors, so I speak from experience here.

Hey gang...quick question.I've got a contract out with a seller, and she is kind of "balking" at the notion of a 30 day extension if we cannot close on the date stated on the contract.

What is concerning is the notion you can buy that house and not have to put any money into it to get the $650k.  

I say this...After almost 15 years of doing online and offline marketing I will be the first to tell youl that this notion is completely false.

I personally know there are more substantial books on real estate investing that give you a more realistic notion on what it takes to make money in real estate.No one on Bigger Pockets is going to paint such an easy route to making money in real estate.

Going through a broker is not the only way to find deals.Also, there is this notion of a “deal” being static you are putting forward.

It has some very powerful search tools and over half the properties in the state that have been sold in the last 18 years are on it in some capacity.I encourage everyone who is considering getting into this seriously (and particularly those who are already taking the classes) to license up as it can give you a lot more flexibility on how you make money in real estate.Overcoming objections from stubborn sellers with preconceived notions about value is something we're doing already anyway.Hope this helps,Wm (licensed broker)

This will give you a notion of what your ARV will be on the subject property.
