We are big enough where we don't need nor want that service, but we are always courteous with our process.  

She pays her rent on time and is courteous and easy to work with (besides the dog).I feel like if something stemming from the landlord side is causing the tenant to leave, then the fee should be refunded.

You have no need to be polite nor courteous in this matter.

I like All My Sons Moving.They were reasonably priced, prompt, courteous - to each other even - and it was a very pleasant experience. 

It has been one problem after another with them and have been professional and courteous through every turn.

Not vented, and for a house with 3 full bathrooms and a kitchen there is only one visible pipe vent and whatsmore is that it’s on the opposite side of the house from all the bathrooms.He even shows me where there is a tear in the main power line coming in from the street with bare wire exposed.The plumber also shared with us that any good GC worth their salt will file their own permits for the work they do with the State.This house had no permits which leads me to believe the seller hired some very shady contractors.Ok so at this point I’m pretty much done with the seller.My RE agent is trying to save the sale by continuing to tell me to get an Inspector (for $400) and have them make up a list of all the problems to negotiate with the seller over.I thought I was very courteous and clear when I said “If the seller will pull permits and get the house up to code we can move forward”.The RE agent contacted the seller and his response was “You can get the permits on your own after you buy the house, but I won’t get any permits”.And that’s when we walked away.Good experience and well worth the $100 we paid the plumber I thought.We also stopped talking to that Real Estate company after that.From this experience I have absolutely no faith or see any reason to hire an Inspector.

I'm getting a lot of mixed responses and it seems like there is a fine line between being nice and courteous and being a professional, respectable landlord.

Ted Stratman from Interra Realty is by far the most professional, most courteous, most responsive commercial broker we have ever dealt with.

But 90% of the time they will say yes, don't be rude, start out being considerate and courteous!

LOL, seriously, that's their name for real. they provided me with a toll free number, however i got my own in case i wanted to move to another service. they're 24.7 and while with them they were good. i used to test them periodically to see how long it took them to pick up, how courteous they were, and if they followed the script. my bill would avg. 50-75/mo depending on minutes used.there are tons of answering services out there, it's just a matter of finding one that fits your preferences.
