I wonder if there is any downside to ordering a couple appraisals and pleading my caseMy one thought is they may be biased because it was just purchase for low 220s.

And can't wait to see what else you put out going forward.FYI I think there is a great opportunity to copy Tim Ferriss - Tools of Titans and mirror very closely how Tim took all podcast guests, consolidated into one book, a few pages per guest, and extracted general background along with major tips, tools, suggestions, and common answers from the guests.I'm biased.. but I would love to read a bigger pockets book that had an almost identical format to Tool of TitansKeep up the good work BP team/ community

Like everyone else has said Cincinnati has a weird mix of good streets and bad in close proximity to each other so its tough to give advice without touring the neighborhood block by block. overall i feels like even the bad parts of Evanston are better than the bad parts of Avondale, but i could be biased because I live here and my step father has been investing in the two neighborhoods since the mid 70's.

My gut tells me, many agents would show the property with the lower Co-op, and either through bias or intent, talk the listing down to their buyers.

Unless of course they are a couple which is a different story.Not being biased considering I'am 23, most people under 25 I wouldn't consider.

Before Josh Dorkin started BP, there was nothing, except for biased marketing squeeze pages from "gurus" trying to sell you their so-called "turn-key rentals" or over-priced "coaching packages" or seminars and boot-camps!

I am bias in this as full disclosure this is my investment strategy after having rentals and doing new builds.

Lots of my way or the highway strategy bias on BP.

ThanksThanks for your comment David.I will be a bit bias and say Kansas City and Toledo because we work in those market lollolOther markets that I consider as great value plays and where the numbers work well are: St Louis, Indianapolis, Columbus, Cleveland, Dayton, outskirts of Detroit.We focus on properties below the $50,000 range.Just my opinion.Thanks.

It's easy to get psychologically caught up in the deal-making process (which is a particular psychological bias that males have) and think that you have to make a deal soon!!!
