Isn't that wild?

World War I sharpshooter Sargent York used to imagine he was back home shooting wild turkey and had an incredibly high score with limited ammunition to his credit.Unlike York, (hopefully) no one is shooting at you and you ought to be able to pick your targets carefully, avoid working on marginal deals (as Michael Quarles suggested) and remember to breath before you squeeze the trigger.

I read lots of wild goose chases (or, as I like to call them, "turtles") by well-meaning people who don't know enough to start with the basics: what are you trying to buy?

Although i saw other investor's signs, company signs and garage sale signs, I still felt like i had to sneak around to put them out to avoid being hassled in the least or real trouble at the worst.One night, I did a uturn in a neighborhood and had a home owner that saw me get in his truck and wild man chase me down for about five miles until I hit a red light.

They will never achieve 100% success (meaning every client becomes a wildly successful investor), but they put forth a lot of time and effort to provide every opportunity and ounce of value they can for each dollar someone pays.2.

Prices can vary wildly even from one block to the next, and you don't know that if you don't see with your own eyes.

TV, NEWSPAPER, GOOGLE etc....Not all of it is good or objective.Anybody watch the coverage on the same event on FOX NEWS & CNBC wildly different point of view of the same source material.

You can create a cap rate for one, but it's a wild guess when the information to determine your expenses is much more evident than with a commercial multi-family.There's so much information on BP.

People seem to gravitate toward crap they have no idea about what they are doing, as if it's not something totally wild, unique, different and has windmills flying around it, it just can't be a good deal.

The investor who deals as if it's the wild west should know if what they are asking a Realtor to get involved with meets the requirements they must work under.
