Scan the marketplace for the mispriced parcel

1 · Learn the move · Cognitive verifier
Deals don't only come from mail. Underpriced parcels get posted on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and the land listing sites every day, and in those channels the first credible responder usually wins. But you can't watch everything, and a scan that hallucinates a bargain wastes the one advantage speed gives you. The cognitive-verifier pattern fits: screen the listings YOU paste against your buy-box and margin threshold, show the spread math for each as a set-up rather than a computed verdict, and then run a critique pass that re-checks every 'clears my spread' against the numbers and downgrades any that rest on a missing figure. The output is a shortlist to go look at, ranked by apparent spread, with the UNKNOWNs (true acreage, access, back taxes, what comps actually support) named as the things to confirm before you act. It never invents a listing or a comp, never computes a resale value as fact, and never tells you a parcel is a deal, only that the pasted numbers are worth a fast, human look.
Here are 8 land listings I pulled. Which clear my spread and are worth a look today? [paste the listings and your buy-box]
2 · Your turn. You write the prompt
You watch three marketplaces and paste this morning's eight land listings (each with asking price, stated acreage, county, and a one-line description) plus your buy-box: you buy at or below 60% of what comparable finished-resale listings ask, minimum 5 acres, with legal access. Two listings look cheap per acre, one is missing acreage, one says 'landlocked'. You want a ranked shortlist of what clears your spread and is worth looking at today, without the AI inventing a comp or declaring anything a deal. Write that prompt.
Remember: the AI sees only your prompt, not this page. If the situation isn't in your prompt, it doesn't exist.
