Hi, I have read some stories on the subject for retirement with real estate and from what I can tell it is an individual perception or choice on how.I have ~6 years to 65.

Sadly, a lot of negative perception to section 8 voucher holders are rooted in racism.

Because perceptions of what is more valuable when the deal goes south will vary greatly.

You are recognized as having a greater knowledge as a broker/agent than an agent, in reality with some mentioning of your license you may be selected over another agent based on perception by the public.Be good too, the judge will also look at you in a more professional light.Now, reality, the additional education is over office management, licensing requirements of agents, administrative aspects, escrow accounts and accounting, MLS, advertising requirements, it's not more in depth as to real estate from a property or marketing standpoint. 

Their owner, Brent Voepel, takes a personal interest in the client's satisfaction and based on my initial perceptions and feel, they appear like the type of company that would exceed expectations.

Now you speak of it how great it is by tricking the public perception.

Geological time is very different from human perception of real estate markets. 

It's just one slice of what can be done to make money in RE, it's not always the easiest, not always accomplished in simple steps, takes much more knowledge sometimes, Well, I started this thread and although it was many pages ago when it started, clearly I did not make it out to be the glamorous method the gurus seem to make it, on the contrary, I pointed out many of the common mistakes and mis-perceptions that investors make in this area in the effort to educate and avoid the same mistakes.

Whether through wacky ARV's or way off base rental income estimates I have a growing perception that anything that doesn't involve you working directly with a seller one on one is a to be taken with a grain of salt.

The issue with the previously posted list is those are all cities Vacasa operates in and not just an overall market perception.
