And they're asking questions that I have already answered a long time ago - Do I allow kids, do I have a yard, what size is my TV, etc....Is this just me, or are some others having problems as well?

I look over and cable TV is playing on the 60" TV as the kids are texting on their phones wearing name brand clothes.

Along with all the podcasts that have been streaming over my tv when ever I'm not working haha

Your Michigan market is a great one for what you are trying to do but I still think there is usually a period of walking before you start running.Most of the stuff on TV is sensationalist BS.

Every room is fully furnished with matching furniture, including the living, dining, and kitchen. the home is equipped with everything right down to smart tv, forks and spoons, small appliances, iron and ironing board.

Excluding the appliances, I didn't purchase the furniture, tv's, etc. so I am wondering if it is really needed? 

@Gina McKee Real property management started showing commercials on TV here.  

It is NOT as easy as they make it out to be on TV.

That's odd, I never sent out one yellow letter, the only stamps I bought were for verifications mailed out, then got a meter, never ran a TV, radio or newspaper ad, but they talked to me in interviews.

@Robert Adams  yup probably that or the famous craigs list ghost adds.this is really comical all these wholesalers who really have no clue that are trying to put these deals together.. man it really creates a very bad image of the industry I think. no professionalism at all.but when you have BP   Interenet webinars and late night TV adds pounding into peoples head that they can get rich in RE with NONE of their own money this is what you get.
