BP is where you might find the reality or realty!

The reality is your not getting a FDIC guarantee your getting a guarantee form a company that you have no clue as to their actual financial situation at the time of the rental guarantee ..

You would think that the recent drop in oil prices, project cancellations and layoffs would have had a bigger impact and add more downward pressure on prices.The reality is, interest rates for FIRST time new home buyers are very low, making debt more serviceable, especially in the entry level price range.

So, my comment is to reality.

I took classes at an Exit reality company in Hinesville, Ga,  discovered how bad the market was on top of a divorce i was so not ready for and had to hit the work force.Currently I just graduated school (ITT-Tech) for Architectural Drafting and work for a HVAC company.  

Thanks @Dev Horn I bought both books back in November, started reading "Flipping" and got a big dose of reality from J Scott on how hard fix and flips can be...so I put the book down.

A while after closing, reality hit home and what was a well-qualified tenant became a nightmare, the rehab that looked so pretty in pictures and videos were shabby, etc. 

You have to factor in vandalism, squatter, eviction, market trend, foreclosure, local authority citation, legal & HOA expenses to make it work.For too often, I see people bid up the property due to emotion instead of reality.

So in reality they aren't investors themselves probably.

Only your experience can tell you if the paper value would ever be a reality on the market.
