The REA I was with previously didnt seem to think I was a very important customer...slow responses, non-specific answers to my questions, etc.  

Anyone want to share their "pitch book" with the public?

At my day job (non-RE), we have a recurring vendor that charges us about $150K/month. 

Same with anyone who gets 20 experienced-backed responses to their question yet ghosts the thread. non response or proper thank yous on PM's have caused me to not do those anymore I might write one sentence but it is weird how common courtesy does not resonate  with so many people on SM or maybe just on this site..

We don't want a video walkthrough accessible via a public channel due to security reasons, but if the person seems legit may grant one privately.

I was already tired of using public transport, plus when the weather was bad the way to work took up even more time.

How can you have no close comps in the past six months within two miles for a single-family home in a non-rural area.

Considering a mix of long and short term rentals, with the STR’s being non-traditional structures targeting glamping clientele.

It seems like you've proven yourself completely emotional and totally non analytical.

This used to be a non-issue for FHA buyers up until 10 years ago when HUD stop allowing buyers to use their appraisalsKeep in mind your agent is not dealing with HUD directly.
