I am learning a lot about the business that, had I not gone through this process, I wouldn’t have learned nearly as much.

I'm not making a 100% emotional decision, but it is a factor.

It is my weakest skill in the research process.

We were trying to buy a loan that was in default and the current lender was emotionally attached and has it listed for over $2M when comps are $1.5M. 

Twilight/Sunset ShotWhy it works: Creates emotion and sets the mood.How to nail it: Capture both ground-level and drone shots to showcase landscaping and lighting.Example: This listing2.

I'm honored to teach workshops and webinars at REI Accelerator and I've gotten to know the coaches and leaders there and I can say they are absolutely trying to provide value far beyond the cost of the program.REI Accelerator is focused on results, not hype, or emotion, or upselling this seminar or that seminar.

The deal fell through because I couldn't line up the financing during COVID......God/Universe has a way of looking out for us...As investors, a crucial skill we develop is to take our emotions out of the situation/deal, but that is hard when we have invested a lot of time and money into a deal. 

If you have someone in MN you trust to manage the place that is one thing, if you don't it kind of answers the question (not that you couldn't find one).Renting out homes which you are emotional attached to can be quite difficult when tenants trash them (which will eventually happen).Best wishes

No it's your friends boomer parents giving the downpayment to your Gen Z/millennial friend to buy that house to their newlywed son with their new daughter in law/wife being emotional and running up the price because it's a "dream" house.

If  you chose to sell, there are a couple things you could do to proactively make the 1031 process much easier.
