(In fact, when the  CEO of Zillow's house was on the market, his own company had a very off-base Zestimate.)Zillow is offering $1.2 million to anyone who can come up with an algorithm that improves the estimating feature. 

Half of something is better than nothing, especially in highly competitive markets.We see a million newbies post walls of texts about their dreams and aspirations and disappear/quit because they lack grit and this is merely a fad for them.

I'm building a new 40 room, limited service hotel in my hometown (cost of $4 million) and I stumbled upon the CMBS program.

I've followed the value of this property till mom and dad passed away 2 years ago and it was sold for $1.1 million, and mortgage free since 1980.Funny thing is I urged him to buy more duplexes in 1970 when they went for $75K, and again in 1982 when they went for $250K.

@Jeff Burdick  I was looking at providing some equity for a few flips In Wriglyville.. those pads were selling for 3 to 4 million each.. no sign of massive issues... its the same in most of the mid west rust belt cities you have socio and economic obsolesance and you have movement from those areas by those that want better schools and housing.. markets shift and change... just the way it is.

Landlording for most is as I state just a adjunct to everyday income.when I look back on my HML company I had in Oakland I had 250 investors that equated to about 50 million in play.I can only think of a few that were landlords... and those were commercial landlords not resi.. now I had a ton of borrowers of course.... but most with cash owned other business's.. and every kind of business.... they kept their business's invested in loans and most had some sort of rentals.. but usually came in Beotching about them and how to sell them and buy more notes LOL.My Daughter works for Intel.. she loves her corporate gig could care less about real estate other than she owns a few rentals as a diversification....

1 Million is right around the corner 😜😎
