Proper etiquette

[Rochelle Ray]

I would just like to have a discussion on proper etiquette.  I have been having a lot of issues with so called  investor "professionals" lately not returning phone calls when I call to inquire on properties they have posted somewhere for sale, typically off market.  I know it may already be sold or they are busy showing it or may be on the phone but I always ask in my message to let me know one way or the other because I am spending time running the numbers and researching while I wait for their phone call and I want to move on otherwise.  Is it wrong of me to want a reply to my inquiry?  It just seems rude and unprofessional.  I just live by the golden rule to treat others the way I would want to be treated.  Maybe I'm just being silly.  Comments?
