However spending years in analysis paralysis myself and also helping clients to make investment purchases I have found that getting your first deal done and not losing money is so much more important than trying to spend all your time and effort to find the "perfect" deal right off the bat. 

I always hear a bunch of experienced agents tell me that the initial training is key to success in the later years so these questions are perfect.

@Dong Yan If it's the perfect property and only the side yard fence is facing the street, there are things you can do to limit sound.

@Justin Moy Saying 'no' is something I had to perfect with my handyman services company and understand the value in being able to do what I way I will and over deliver whenever possible.Aloha @Richard F.!

.” - Bruce Lee   Outside of doing a task, intuitively creating the task steps helps me remember and understand the "why/when" moments.As for pulling the trigger on a purchase, I'm looking for the right one (not the perfect one) for this area.Analysis paralysis is a real thing. 

To echo the previous comments if the numbers work then go for it, the perfect storm rarely comes along, i.e. low rates and low home prices and if you sit around and wait you may just miss out!

Joel,With the Tropical storm coming, most carriers have issued moratoriums on binding coverage. 

Sounds like you got in at the perfect time.It isn't super common in Indy for entire neighborhoods to blow up with appreciation the way that Irvington and say, Fountain Square have.

As soon as I received my license and certification, I job searched and found an amazing position (Business Development Manager) with a company that has just taken Monterey County by storm. 

You don’t have your pitch perfect when starting off but the more you talk to a client , the better you get at making a sale and I think that is what your saying, I need leads.
