TYPE 1 ERRORS
Lesson Summary:
In this lesson, you’ll learn what type #1 errors you’ll want to avoid at all cost.
More than anything else, what we’re trying to do when buying a piece of land is to make sure we don’t buy anything with type #1 errors.
Just by eliminating properties with type #1 errors, you’ll narrow your search down from an often bewildering assortment to a smaller, clearly defined number of properties and that’s before you even look at any of the desirable features such as ponds, pastures, fences, or anything like that.
