When this is monetized do you think the bank discounts the cash because it is squishy and a figment of the borrower's imagination.If you look at the very beginning of the thread you will also see numerous references to different perceptions of market value in my posts.

They do so as a result of their biases of judgment or mistake their perceptions as reality.

I'm also worried about Realtor Perception (being one myself).

Unfortunately, whether there are studies that back up the public's opinion or perception doesn't seem to matter.

I would not rely on a Land Trust for various reasons like the perception of deception. 

I think the whiteboard animations are over-done and don't make the seller any more comfortable about selling their home to you, but that's just my perception. 

As someone who works the probate niche, I've been painted an ambulance chaser...So I guess I can deal with the perception of being unprofessional by someone who colors me so by way of hawking his own product.

What i was trying to point out is that your end buyer's "perception" could be that they are getting scammed if they knew you were making $60k plus on the deal without doing any work or repairs.Perception is often taken over reality and as such, I recommended that if you do this deal, to do a double close and NOT an assignment of contract.I would also guess that your exit value is high, particularly since you have mentioned that other properties have sold to other investors for under $30k.

It's very easy to mistake our perceptions for what the market thinks, but it frankly doesn't matter if I would want to live my properties or not - it only matters whether or not my market considers the property to be in acceptable condition.All of my rental units have extremely strong cash flow - and it's not because they're the nicest properties in the neighborhood.

I think OP was talking about the connotation/perception.
