But, you need to decide which are most important to you and build your business in such a way as to optimize for what you're not getting.For example, in my business, I demand "better," prefer "cheaper," and am willing to settle for not getting "faster."

If under normal operations the property cash flows then it will cash flow better and be higher yielding in the case things should optimize in your favor.The consequence of not accounting for contingencies in your numbers and evaluations is that you may end up not generating enough money to pay for ongoing operating expenses then fall behind the 8 ball with a property, bad ending to it all and definitely buyers regret along with possible financial ruin. 

But, we are all about leverage and cashflow so this is really sub optimal.

I very much like the idea of slowing down and optimizing my credit score and other factors to get the best possible loan.

I tend to try to optimize everything, including the lowest interest rate possible, to the point that it ends up slowing me down.

But some areas around the globe are not in optimal shape.  

Stress management, empathy, optimism, courage, tolerance for ambiguity, humility, mindfulness.

I've always had a property mgmt company manage my properties because I'd rather spend my time find the next deal or optimizing the investment than screening residents, coordinating maintenance requests, etc.
