There are always opportunity on the MLS....properties that are listed/categorized incorrectly....properties that rely on public record square footage that is not accurate but the broker is too lazy to verify and simply relies on the autofill data, properties that have base zoning that allows for a better use, properties with unique characteristics that are not properly detailed in the marketing information, properties that are simply listed over priced and become stale and are good negotiation opportunities. 

They were properly renovated before they went on the market and are not costing/causing any additional maintenance then some new construction in my management portfolio.
