Sets the right expectations/mindset needed going forward - basically, there is nothing easy, no shortcuts and a strategic plan is essential to your success.I read the book after reading a lot of blogs, BP and a couple of other books (Millionaire Real Estate Investor) so I didn't find it particularly useful.

Those issues are more known and more easily anticipated and quantified than trying to guess where things in a new construction were overlooked, shortcutted, etc.

I tried selling the house without repainting the interior, and I lost out on that shortcut.

There are NO shortcuts here, folks!

There is no real short-cuts in business, but there are cost effective solutions.

This is why I teach people to learn the business the right way and do not try and take short cuts, because they will hurt you in the end.

There are few shortcuts dealing with loss mit in general.As far as the BPO value, just ask.

The tricks and shortcuts you hear about are possible I guess in theory but they carry a lot of risk, and for every 1 person who pulls these tricks off, many more fail trying.

There is no short cut, you must do th eresearch yourself. 

I'm not trying to be lazy but looking for a shortcut so I can negotiate better once I talk to them.
