Real Estate is particularly well suited to this because of its imperfect nature.

While it will conform to your irregularities it won't telegraph imperfection like a thinner one. 

@Karlyn,It is unfortunate that one person can have an imperfect experience with something or someone; write about it online (i.e. ripoffreport.com), and it becomes gospel.

But seriously, no one has all the answers and ours is an imperfect world.

Even the smallest of imperfections will usually "telegraph" through the vinyl, and dirt can prevent the glue from adhering properly.  

Because I'm so new and working with limited capital, I'll have to say that my plan is to steer clear of high crime areas, homes with structural imperfections, boarded up homes on the same street, significant homeowner improvements, homes that do not cash flow or properties with significant foundation problems. 

However, as a real estate asset owned property and you wanting to pay less be sure to pinpoint the imperfections of their assets.

Of course, every detail counts so it makes it an imperfect science.  

I'm definitely a big "take imperfect action" type person, but I don't want my first flip to be a failure either.

Anyway my point was this last podcast was great, a few tims the focus was about imperfect action instead of perfect planning.
