It is not a protected class in my state, though in some of the counties in Maryland it is.I also like the hubris of a guy as inexperienced as you both in real estate and on the site calling out someone like Jay Hinrichs, one of the the more respected voices on this site, for fair housing violations when none occurred. 

Hey All, I'm trying to get a google voice number setup and I can't get rid of the "please state your name and we will try to connect you" standard message before it rings to my number then plays my custom voice message.I've called from 4 different numbers, half the time it goes directly to my custom message and half the time it plays the automated message then goes to my custom message.  

(preferably a contractor you know, give them a digital camera and a pocket voice recorder and ask them to visit and give you their opinion.Example...

@Chris Eaker Yeah, someone came with a "new innovative twist-reverse wholesaling"....just another name for common sense.

It all started over Christmas vacationing in Aruba that the voice in the back of my head started getting a little louder.

I Subscribe for PRO membership to have full access to all the knowledge and people on BP and support this wonderful innovation!

Love the constant innovation...well done.

By giving them the google voice number and password, he sees the leads coming in, gains confidence in hitting a $500 deal for himself. 

An example is I just got a quad under contract and he was sticking to the "you called me script" until I dug deeper and deeper and could hear a little venom in his voice when we talked about his current tenants..

I triage, the people who leave voice mails get called back first.
