Paint the ceiling white for the illusion of bigger

@Barbara Kennedy  if you put a house on a website with picture bed bath etc and give the illusion your selling it.. and or put an add in Craigs list again in the homes for sale section that is illegal in Oregon.. assigning contracts is not.. but pretty hard for all but the most established to be able to actually do it without violating the laws.. and one trip to salem to talk to the DRE will cure you of that  LOL

I think the Folio gave people the illusion of liquidity and evidently there was very little activity in trading.

The days on the calendar are an illusion - you are only promised today -  so USE your time and don't WASTE it!

I think folks that get disappointed with turn key are under the illusion that its like buying a mutual fund or something like that.when in fact what is done for you is simply this.1. a rehabber ( turn key outfit ) has sourced and rehabbed ( we hope) a rental property and sold it to you 2. they may have put a tenant in it 3. and they may own the management company ( wise move for most turn key as they keep better contact with their clients and over time this becomes  nice profit center) Once you own it you have to be engaged and stay engaged as the owner if you don't your going to usually have disappointment.. and if you as the buyer think just because you bought turn key that you need to hardly do anything for the rest of the life of the investment well then your setting your expectations up for some disappointment.

My  wife enjoys the stability of a steady paycheck although it is steadily not enough(in todays world I believe stable job is an illusion).

Therefore, they continue to only reiterate the only thing they know and form a veil of illusion just because it seems like what they say makes sense.

@Carmen LewisWhen you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose but your illusions.

Tenants will move when they want so attempting to "bind" them to a term (ie 1 year) is an illusion from the point of view of the landlord.

Give the other person the illusion of control How are we supposed to do that?
