People will always need a place to stay it's Maslow's Law "Hiearchy of Human Needs".

The plan so far is to contract out as little labor as humanly possible and buy something thats hopefully at least 10% undervalue.

With real estate investing if I put good in, I get good out, with most jobs you can put good, or even great in, yet you are totally dependant on what the human filter between you and the end.Any hardworker who has been downsized will tell you that.3.

Online sites will never be as accurate as a human who can take all the little things into account.

Someday I should write a listOf all the deals that I have missed;Bonanzas that were in my grip—I watched them through my fingers slip;The windfalls which I should haveWere lost because I overthoughtI thought of this, I thought of that,I could have sworn I smelled a rat,And while I thought things over twice,Another grabbed them at the price.It seems I always hesitate,Then make up my mind much too late.A very cautious man am IAnd that is why I wait to buy.When tracks rose high on Sixthand Third,The price asked was, I felt absurd;Those apartment blocks—blackWere priced a thirty bucks a-foot!

The problem is that in most cases comps could be interpreted both ways, supporting the price and invalidating the price.Comparable sales are always the most accurate way of determining fair market value, but when you are picking two or three out of a hundred to compare the subject property to, discretion comes into play, and with it human error.

After all, at the end of the day, the investor has to make the best informed decision he or she can with the information that he or she has gathered.Well we all know that people are human & humans make mistakes.
