I know I'm not going to make any friends with this post... but my dear fellow investors.. do you have any idea how intrusive it is to not only get constant texts, phone calls, emails, letters (not as friends but from owner info taken from tax rolls), and now that investors are so desperate I have people calling and texting my PARENTS to see if I will sell my Texas properties. In the past 3 months I have had tenants contact me that people are knocking on the doors to talk to the owner. Seriously. This method must be working for some people, i get it. But if you get a hearty "FU" response then it's because our industry is at the point of disrupting people's daily lives, which is not cool. 
Yes, my properties have "no soliciting" signs on the front doors. Do not call list, blocking numbers, emails, etc does no good.

Why don't you say YES! Give them the price you want and then hear the phone click. I don't mind phone calls and texts I send them market value and they usually say thank you or they give me their story how they have to make a profit and it's a business bla bla, and I totally understand. So I just tell them I can list it tomorrow on the MLS if I want to, your asking me if I want to sell and yes I do! Everything is for sale…….at the right price :).
