Its the art of any good salesperson - no fear of rejection.

It is more of an intellectual exercise and less of a art exercise6.

@Jason Ma this is all part of the "art" of running comps and getting your ARV.

So anything related to Art becomes vulnerable.

Investing in real estate is not that different than stocks, bonds, precious metals, art or whatever.

Heck, as him if he'll tutor you in the fine art of estimating for a few extra bucks.

Even these low-end properties now get all new flooring (carpet and 18†tile with deco dots) new appliances, granite counter tops, new sinks and faucets, dual pane windows, new base, casing and crown molding, new plugs and switches, interior two-tone and exterior paint.

I am working on the art part, i.e., market nuances, property types, etc.

the art of the deal is also another big draw. :) if i cant find someone to answer questions, or has the knowledge im seeking, theres always a hundred more who will and do...
