Picking up that phone can be like wrestling a 500 pound gorilla :).  

The buyer can pound dirt and find someone else to work with.  

I will keep pounding the pavement in my homeland of Cincy but I'm definitely not going to pass on a good deal in a market where I own properties.

This time I finally see about a 35 to 40 pound raccoon, there was apparently another way in.

I've seen contracts written by Realtors, by car salesman, by insurance agents and even a few loan officers, I wouldn't use any of them, they are usually penny wise and pound foolish.

My response is penny wise, pound foolish not to list with a realtor.

I agree with @Nicholas Dagnillo you are being penny smart and pound foolish.

When you buy something “sight unseen,” whether it’s a four-acre lot or a four-pound Chihuahua, you haven’t laid eyes on it.The Oxford English Dictionary says “sight unseen” is an American expression for “without inspection” and dates from the 1890s.

I had a potential applicant call last year about renting one of our units, and said her 50+ pound "part pit-bull" is a service animal.

Yes, I agree that its been very difficult bidding for properties, but must be out there pounding the ground.
