Most people do need to be guided, but more and more, consumers are doing this by being empowered by data and a perceived unbiased entity or third party.

I wanted to provide a case study on my time with the company and hopefully provide an unbiased “face based” documentation of my dealings with the organization.In early July 2016 I heard about Clayton Morris, through his BiggerPockets Interview, which led me to the Morris Invest Podcast.

They would not be providing you with an unbiased answer. 

Again, IMO, if someone is an “advisor”, then their advice should be unbiased by monetary incentives.  

It is not Biggerpockets saying "you should do this because it works great".You can not blindly take the speakers word for it without doing some accurate unbiased fact checks.

It’s misleading and bad form to have people believing that you’re relating your personal experience in an unbiased manner when in actuality your advertising paid services.  

Unbiased opinion: Columbus, Ohio is the best market to invest in

Asking a fellow unbiased underwriter on whether or not they would’ve made the same decision as you will help refine your radar for when you should fix a mistake or chalk it up to probability.#20Estimating closing costs is one of the only times that I choose to take the “easy path”.I used to manually calculate the closing costs by adding appraisals, title fees, lender fees, seller demands, etc. but overall, closing costs are a one-time relatively small payment.Don’t over-analyze.

You want an unbiased Inspector.Then:1) Do a SWOT analysis of your resources2) Write down your real estate goals3) Pick an asset type: SFH, 2-4 units, 5+ units, or something else like MHP. 4) Pick an asset class: Class A, B, C & D properties, research pros & cons, pick one to focus on5) Pick a real estate market that matches your resources & goals6) Contact local agents & PMC’s to start sending you listings to analyze7) Analyze a few deals weekly, get comfortable with the market and refine what you're looking for

I thought an appraiser should always be unbiased and give a fair representation of what the market value of a home is.Thanks a lot!
