Such methods are inherently inaccurate so they'll either overstate or understate the reality of the property.

It's not that it's all that difficult to be a successful investor, the reality is that is take patience and sacrifice that most people just don't have- they want a nice house, car, boat, whatever NOW.

While we would all love our real esate business to be easy to manage the reality will be that managing your properties from long distance will always be exceptionally challenging and for the most part you will discover that it's just is not worth it. 

Look even if you are right about the value, then you must concede the sellers are not seeing reality. 

How do I take the image in my head and turn it into reality?

I started out this post talking about the value of listening to things we don't really agree with or that contradict our view of reality.

It's almost October here, very few Tenants left after summer.You'll get lucky if you'll get even couple units rented to sell it.It might sound good on paper but there is something wrong in reality.

In reality, I hadn't yet learned that the commercial brokers control 80-90% of the larger commercial deals, and I probably could have found something locally that made sense if I had figured his out earlier!

The reality is that you are probably getting some thick bs on the witness protection scenario.
