I hate how so much of the real estate industry likes to play on your emotions as an investor. They create a sense of urgency when the market is going up and out of control to ensure you don't "miss out". All the while, "urgency" is inflating values. That sucks.
But, they do it again by taking you on bus tours to view homes being lost in foreclosure so you feel a sense of urgency to "buy now" while you're surrounded by other buyers.
Be smart about what you allow salesman to do to manipulate you. As an investor, you want facts. Emotions must be laid to the side.
