Doubtless of your personal experience, after 18 years as a Broker, Investor, and Realtor®, I can assure you... when you generate, you won't have to tolerate the nonsensical, emotional, idiotic Seller.Have a Powerful Sales Day!

Basically think through everything that could go wrong and plan accordingly with legal documents so that you are covered if/when things go south and you can keep most of the emotion out of the deal when emotions are running high. 

I have no emotional ties to the property, its purely an investment for me, so agreed value looks like the best route for me.

I sure hope things go smoothly considering the unnecessary emotional trauma me and my child have been through.

But, I have found being peaceful and having a tenant leave the place in good shape and on time without emotional headaches far outweighs a little money.

Plus, at the current moment, you're likely to get into some bidding wars with buyers who develop an emotional attraction to a home whereas you should solely focus on the numbers behind the deal.

It takes the emotion out of situations like these. 

But when it comes to running your business, it's best to leave emotion out if it.

We just need to be making business decisions and not emotional decisions.

I truly hope you are openminded enough to see DATA for what it is and not use emotions or opinions to defend a claim.So here is my single statement in an attempt to help.All the reasons you listed why you think cold calling is the best, has nothing to do with cold calling. it has to do with finding a motivated seller, and no list can possible find motivated sellers.
