My whole Bigger Pockets discussions screen is on the left side of my computer screen for some reason.

I embarrassingly made the incorrect assumption that the software would automatically compute an assumed improvement ratio when in fact, that is something I should have correctly inputted. 

Oven not working is usually one of three things... defective element, do it yourself cheep fix, fuse, do it yourself cheep fix, computer control panel, replace with used appliance...$200..  

I've used it so far in two units and have no complaints so far.Sorry for the poor quality, but it's the only pic I've got on my computer....

Sadly, in this day and age, a 15 year old can edit a credit report in photoshop, while sitting in a computer lab at school, in less than 5 minutes.  

He told me that he hadn't even planned on bidding on that property but was just sitting at his computer waiting for another property to come up for sale that he wanted when he sort of saw the bidding take off.

When I hear cap rate I want to believe it is from an actual sale and that the NOI has been actually computed and analyzed properly. 

You will also want to compare this ROI computation relative to obtaining another investment ( your next property) because the money may be used more efficiently there.

If you make decisions, or if you predetermine future events based on the way they "sound", you are going to miss out on a lot of great opportunities.If the first time anyone heard any of the following statements:1 - I can build a set of monkey bars, out of wood, wire and cloth, and it will allow me to fly,2 - I'm going to take a bunch of "1's" and "0's", string them together in different patterns, and it will allow me to think about anything faster than the speed of light.3 - I'm going to eat a white oddly shaped ball, that came out of a chicken's....and it will taste great.4 - I'm going to collect and drink a whitish liquid that a cow had sprayed on the ground, and it will taste great....the words, "it sounds too good to be true" were overheard, and none of the above were done because everyone that heard those words believed them, we may never have the use of a computer, and airplane, and would not have been able to eat breakfast when hungry.Money doesn't make a noise, so money decisions shouldn't be based on what you hear...but by what you see.Credit cards work, if you are disciplined enough to work fast enough to pay them off before the interest kicks in.  

At my current company we have so many people bring us deals that if I don't have enough info do a desktop analysis from the first email, I can't spend the time meeting or doing drivebys or calling people in the area.
