If you can get your strategy so dialed in that even a pessimist can't find anything wrong with it, then you've definitely got a solid plan! 

A pessimist sees every opportunity as a problem.  

That's a pretty pessimistic take you've got on Binghamton there!

My disagreement with some of the plans out there is that they don't seem to work out well over 6 month period of downtime and I'm a little pessimistic that we beat down the virus and recover the economy before then. 

(It doesn’t mean I don’t operate like this is a business and I won’t put them out and I make it clear).Don’t get me wrong, there are tenants who will be pessimists or unappreciative.

Am I being to pessimistic and missing out on a great BRRRR deal?

Tough to generalize from one example but I can think of a couple of reasons why that niche of not completed flips would be pricing down:1) recession and housing market talk has housing construction folks pessimistic. 2) delays from supply chain and materials cost created delays and margin shaving and will affect the new buyer as well…so why would they take on that problem right now?

I'm not being pessimistic, negative or doubtful and I'm not trying to offend you.

I can see how my rhetoric seemed pessimistic, it was more of a word of caution for extended "due diligence" is required in excess to just the 2% test or a cash on cash test. 

I think some of the posters are just conservative, rather than pessimistic.
