Add any repairs and it gets worse.I think there may be lower hanging fruit.

Buying one big house is putting all your eggs in one basket. 

I don’t want all my eggs in one basket. 

I explained to several of these buyers that you shouldn’t just focus on the low-hanging fruit.

Obviously one would have the most success by putting all their eggs into the real estate basket, but what about just dabbling in real estate while working another job?

I remember when we moved into an apt and we found a small welcome basket on the kitchen counter.

I must say that the mastermind group has been very fruitful.

So I wanted to ask the bigger pockets community, as a first time homebuyer is it safe to throw all your eggs in a new home basket?

I did sign up for his marketing program which was not fruitful and a "burn out" class which did have some useful info.

And, some assessors use past sales amounts and adjust for inflation, so if the property has not been held very long by the current owner, the current assessment might be close to the market value again.It's better to think of the two like apples and oranges, because usually that's how close they are...both fruits from a tree but with much different tastes.The question asked by the Realtor above in OP, may be born out of the lack of knowledge of that Realtor.
