However, nothing, and I mean nothing will irritate, frustrate, upset, an agent more than working with a personal friend to then realize that the "friend" has bought a property with someone else.

You don't want to irritate with too much too often, you have to occasionally send him something with a kind and gentle nudge.

It irritates me!

There are ways for you to filter the irritated callers without talking to them directly.Yes, your letter is sensative, but takes a lot of words to say, 'hey, don't get mad at me if you don't like me writing you.'

That is truthful, addresses their concern (if not their irritation) and lets everyone move on.If you start getting creative with your answers, as people sometimes advocate ("Our system has identified you as a property owner that may benefit, blah, blah" Nonsense, you bought a list from a list broker that sells that same list hundreds of time a week) you both waste your time and cause the person you mailed to wonder what the heck is going on.

That irritated me since he had went up to $90K verbally over the phone. 

Antonio,Keep asking them to look things up and they will eventually get irritated and give you your own access.

They are also running a makeshift repair shop out of their garage and making lots of noise irritating my tenant.

It's been quite frustrating and having $ tied up that I would like to re-invest is irritating to say the least. 

I realize "newbies" are probably irritating to the "vets", but way too much assuming and it has been a little condescending.
