It's been a lesson to me of why it's vital to do the research and that your gut feeling is often not correct.

I know there is a lot of potential in Baltimore because I receive emails from wholesalers every day, but like Ned said, it's VITAL to know the neighborhoods3) Join a local REI meetup (actually, I've already done that, but have yet to make it out to any meetings)I'd be happy to share my experiences and what I've learned so far looking at properties and visiting different neighborhoods.

It’s not vitally important, but it’s a case where spending an extra $20 can make it look like you spent an extra $500.

In this business, I can't trust anyone who doesn't have the ability to recognize liabilities as it is vitally important to all stakeholders...

It's just that some vital aspect of our character has changed that values show over substance & appearing bigger than ourselves.

The tenant screening portion is vital if you think theres going to be a recession.

It is also vital to show up in person to evaluate the situation. 1 HR is not to far to check out your investment.

I would imagine it would be similar to a doctor or hospital saying "eh, you're fine, and don't need a doctor" without actually taking vitals or whatever, and then that person dying. 

No one would expect to talk to a brain surgeon before a nurse has taken vitals, would they?
