THE MISTAKE however is that most people think that it just means finding something that is easily seen at face value.. for example most think that it's as easy as seeing a 3BD/2BA listed at $200K where every other 3BD/2BA is $300K, so that's what they keep looking for... it's rarely ever that easy and if it was.. you whould have tons of competition if it even stayed on the market at all!
