@Daria B. Thanks for sharing the link, I just listened to the podcast and it certainly doesn't sound like your 1st, as you are so poised and coupled with that I had a few take away items.
Of course the book you are reading has been added to my list...."Tips & Traps for Negotiating Real Estate by Robert Irwin"
Good luck on your REI journey and I look forward to your continued interactions in the forums!
