Maybe the most difficult thing is to find the real facts. Many times I feel that it is easier for me to believing what other people said as "real fact" than find it myself... Need more effort to do the research our self. Nice post!…I agree with you regarding the importance of learning to trust only the real facts. Maybe the most difficult thing is to find the real facts.

I think the same can be said about a really good real estate guru that isn't out to make a quick buck off of you, but can be your friend and adviser.

With advanced technologies and internet savvy generation holding the reigns of this modern world the process of marketing has undergone a sea change. Approaching people has now become much more easier but the authenticity is often doubtful, specially when it comes to selling or buying houses. I would say look for an agent who has a good reputation, inquire about him and make sure that he is reliable. Being a real estate agent myself, I have seen agents misguiding the buyers just for the sake of business and money. And that is the reason why i always insist on my clients to clarify all their inhibitions before going for the actual trade. Absolutely, right.

You need to have a very healthy sense of skepticism as well as a LOT of common sense (which seems to be not-so-common). I'm always surprised how many fast-talking con-men (and women) are out there that made a TON of cash in the last few years. Not only do you need to be a people person, but being naive will drain your pocketbook. Real estate is a shady business.
