Curtains-never, no idea what colors tenant wants.

I know recently they repaired and painted all of the exterior on all the units from white to fancy colors (which is what caught my eye about looking into these places).

Brokers also charge for various things like E&O insurance, website fees, color copies, etc.

It could be because of the inspection, the color of the house, the last name of the seller, the neighbors, the race/ethnicity of the seller, the schools, or for whatever the hell you feel like (and you don't even have to tell the seller what the reason is).

I have spent about $2000 on direct mail marketing mainly using colorful postcards and letters, I have got 2 listings out of them.

It colors my judgment sometimes, and I should not have been so flippant with my comments.

Colors, shine, putting a stack of cash on the front to catch people's eyes?

However, whether you invest here or elsewhere, I still think there is value in deeply contemplating the question of why it is so much more expensive ... that is a rhetorical question for you to noodle on, but my advice is to think long and hard to understand the factors that go into it as it will help you see the REI world in color so to speak rather than in black and white like most newbies (no offense intended to you or other newbs).

while a family takes their time "we need to discuss it this weekend...Joe is concerned about not having room to store his extra motorcycle...Judy doesn't like the color of the drapes, and she would really like a natural gas cooktop and not electric..."

Have you tested different headlines, different messages, different colors.
