Near a highway (Great for marketing and exposure, but not great for noise).

Always do at least the company match on your 401-k use index funds, avoid managed funds, single company stock 401-k way too much exposure to a single stock!

The highest price typically comes from the greatest exposure and the MLS offers the greatest exposure. 

So it is only worth it to me to build something if I have minimal cash exposure.

@Annette Ammarell Here is the challenge: if it's true that we are all the average of the five (5) people whom we are in the contact with (and I agree with that) we must be vigilant and consciously decide who we are surrounded by, whether family, workmates or friends.You can't pick your family, but you can limit exposure to negative family members.  

i have to say, if my house were facing foreclosure and I needed to sell in 29 days "or else"I would be very interested in a chance of a couple weeks of MLS market exposure with a guaranteed buyout.  

Remember, beyond their numerous advantages (100% private financing, realtors, national TV exposure, etc.), the fees they're paid per show provide a significant buffer against paying too much, cost overruns, and optimistic ARV's.

This way you will not be using your money and have no exposure to risk.  

Constant exposure is key.

I get a call that now the minimum payment needs to be at $500 and I won’t get any exposure at the amount I was at.
