To me if the numbers are positive (that's what we teach our MBAs/I'm a business school professor: $1 of positive return is worth the investment) I always counter my counter...you still might not get the deal but at least then you can move on with a sense of closure if they reject your counter.

My husband found out his professor was a real estate agent part time.

Maybe a professor or something, but most professionals buy in North Macon.

Every professor was all the head construction bosses around town and so I felt they absolutely knew what they were talking about.I have incorporated many of the things taught from UW into our flipping business and the goal has been do the rehab in 30-days. 

Shiller, a Yale University Economics Professor, shows how housing prices have changed over time using an arbitrary starting point of 100 adjusting for inflation.

The rental was close to a university and a professor had one more year before she retired and she planned to move out of the state after retirement.

In a parallel example on of my professors used to love to point out, the English poet John Milton initially planned to write 8 books of Paradise Lost (about the fall of Adam and Eve) and 8 books of Paradise Regained (about Christ's triumph over Satan's temptations in the desert).

Traveling professors, students, parents, nurses, patients, patient families all have a need for short term furnished rentals.

You don't want to be off-putting that come away thinking your an a-hole but you can't be giving info away like your a professor (a professor who isn't even getting paid to teach).

It always cracked me up to have a professor teaching business classes who had never run a business.
