At this stage it is less of a "hit" but again I still feel there is more money on the table.I guess I decide if I keep my current buyer/bad appraisal or stick to a higher number, possibly lose the buyer and have to relist, or have the buyer argue the appraisal and push it back two weeks for them to review it.This is investing though!

@Shawn Ward can't argue with you there.

For instance, active buyers often get presented with multiple deals and it can be difficult to argue claims that a buyer did or did not already have knowledge of a property.If you do end up going along with signing an NDNC, my best advise would be to pay attention to the language details and be wary about blanket NDNC's or unreasonable conditions.  

I get why the model works for wholesalers and why it works for the investor, but as far as the seller goes, I would argue that price is a function of supply and demand.

Thanks to BP I have preliminary neighborhoods ABC mapping and I put the stickers on my map. 

I been listening to podcasts here on BP, along with watching youtube videos from credible sources, and reading books about real estate investment such as "The ABC's of Real Estate Investing".

@Chris Sullens What's even more fun is that if we use your method then instead of debating the added value of new flooring you get to argue with the appraiser to debate costs associated with: vacancy, maintenance, cap-ex hold-backs, etc.  

How would I argue this?

How can anyone argue with making an extra $1500 per month in their sleep?!

Primarily because we had raised rents and completed some significant deferred maintenance.With regards to the vacancy issue I would argue that a portfolio of SFR's is no different than a multi.
