I got my huge leather sofa, tv, bedroom sets for 50-70% off.

The guru was selling a secret.Then came a new thing, flip shows, where TV did its best to make a life of residential renovation management sound glamorous.

I think limiting/cutting out negative things is very useful as well: negative friends and family, negative TV/negative news, social media as a whole, negative music, etc. 

Virtually every COC calculation I have seen for ADU additions do not reflect the negative initial position and therefore are not accurate (or at least not an apples to apples comparison with COC calculations on most other investments).

As the RE market picked up headed towards 2007/2008 (and the TV shows started coming out) the deals were harder and I had to cut my teeth doing houses that were increasingly more difficult. 

You still have to go through the legal process if you have a bad apple.

Those plug-ins to mail user agents (MUAs) such as Outlook or Apple Mail are not really auto-responders - they are just an adaptation of the same mechanism that sorts your incoming mail and only work if your MUA reads mail from your inbox.

Talk to the attorneys of the big-time rehabbers in the state and/or at the REIAs they will say the same.Disclosure: I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY NOR DO I PLAY ONE ON TV.

That will be comparing apples to apples.

Be sure you are comparing apples to apples in terms of property size, reno status, etc.
