The data they mentioned are difficult to verify and they will ghost after the sales, particularly with any perceived negativity and numbers that do not match up with their rosy estimates.

Likewise, in a nearby suburb in which we also operate, active listings have dropped 24% since 1Q 2020.DemandThere are all kinds of statistics and analytics out there suggesting that STR demand has returned, but here’s one that I can guarantee you is 100% true and unbiased: our 14 units have been at 93% occupancy for the past two months, and prices are on the rise too.According to PriceLabs, a dynamic pricing tool for STRs, new bookings in North America have returned to pre-COVID levels, and according to STR Profit Academy, Airbnb saw more nights booked for US listings between May 17 and June 3 than the same period in 2019.

If rents dropped $50 a month because of an economic downturn, you would suddenly find yourself going negative on cash flow on this particular property.

The statistics on this cohort are misleading. 

@Meghan McCallum I doubt seriously that any such invention exists, as the statistics on stock picking versus indexes are abysmal.

To minimize the impact of that data-point, and thus minimize (or, ideally, negate) any appraisal shortfall, you will want your Realtor to host the appraisal, and you will want your Realtor to provide documentation (not words, docs) supporting your low low purchase price as having a really good reason. 

If interest rates and, hence, mortgage rates shoot up that will be a negative for housing prices.

The only negative I can say is that their materials were dated and had some typos in it. 

If that’s the case that will negatively affect my ARV, didn’t anticipate that..If I chose not to do anything, could I still sell it in a few years or I’ll run into a buyer that will want me to rectify this?

Since you brought up weight-loss products, what is the reputation of such products that do not work as advertised (which is probably 100% of them) - awful lot of complaints and negative reviews.
