Really averaging a little over an hour per property could certainly be reasonable depending on the circumstances.Hourly billing can be tricky - I would inquire respectfully of what created the increase over the prior year.

I'm tired of scanning for properties on the MLS only to see something great, inquire about it and find out that it's already under contract.

Suck it up for six months while all this settles, then inquire about refinancing. 

I inquired on Friday with my credit union and it was at 3% then Monday went to 3.375% then the next day was at 3.250% then back up.

I inquired about a loan and unfortunately long story short I got burned lost all communication and can not get my deposit back.

But yeah, it’s basically crickets...The few people who did inquire ghosted on me. 

They don’t pay me my portion of the rent until nearly 2 months after the rent is paid, they send me a different amount every month (significantly less than what it should be), they never answer the phone and when I inquired by email about the amount being short they said they had a plumber come to the property for a clog.

Should I also inquire about authorized payment of an environmental/asbestos test to the exterior of the residence and ask if asbestos was disturbed and request a copy of the report, if a test was even conducted? 

Does our credit score get hit multiple times if we inquire from several banks/lenders?

However, with this CV19, folks that have inquired are now holding off on booking, and the new inquiries have pretty much dried up.
