Did you account for mortgage, taxes, insurance, utilities (including internet and cable/sat tv) etc?

HGTV I think is made up half the time so don't trust what the TV says. 

They're usually spending a half million or more on top-to-bottom renovation with top-dollar finishes, all while filming a TV show.

I need brain storm on what to do with the TV nook on the picture. 

The TV in the unit is brand new (32" led tech tv).

I don't focus on the residential market but have friends that do.Used to when the markets where just recovering the first time home buyer houses they could make 30k on resale.Now with all these shows on TV like the last cycle you have heard's jumping in and overpaying for properties with big dollar signs in their eyes.

Type "get motivated sellers" into the YouTube app on your phone after connecting a chromecast to your tv and watch away!

Instead of spending four hours watching TV every night, playing Fortnite, or partying with friends, read books, listen to podcasts, attend networking events, study the market, walk neighborhoods talking to people and looking for deals, etc.

Here's a few images of what was left upon move out (could be worse)...Yes, those are holes the size of a quarter in the wall - it cost him (his deposit) $246 to have repaired - apparently the result of a flat screen TV, speakers on the ceiling mounted along the opposite wall, and speakers mounted on the opposite wall...in a 625 sq ft house.

Find a way to get on local TV to start building a brand name for yourself.I was at a real estate meeting where local TV personality Rob Black was the invited speaker (Google "Rob Black San Francisco").
