Hello AllThis is sort of a Question and FYI...We got a demand letter to stop using the following phrase on/in ANY content:"we buy houses" (within quotes)within the next 7 days or face legal action from the folks over at webuyhouses(dot)comThis seems to be a common everyday phrase for those of us that are in real estate investment... sort of like the old attempt at putting a trademark on requiring people to pay royalty/fees every time you told and/or sang happy birthday to someone.If this is a valid claim... it will cause a LOT of rewrite and changes:- Content- Website Domain- Website Directory Structure- Business Cards/Documents/Flyers... etc.We have a Real Estate Attorney that we are going to bounce this off of; however, I thought I'd put it out there in case anyone has any past experience and/or feedback/suggestions - or for those that are new, so they don't have to redesign stuff.Just sort of thought it petty... maybe the folks that are buying the franchises, for leads, aren't getting any bites... complaining... and this is their way to try and corner something.:: shrug ::We are already working on alternate phrases, which may actually work out better...Thoughts/Suggestions?

All we had to do was show them the checks that bounced and file out some paper via online.

If the check bounces, I won't rent to them.

I might not be able to help directly but I am always open to chat about real estate and bounce ideas back and forth.

The ones that aren't good will bounce back to your return mail address.

Feel free to shoot me a note - I bounce back and forth between the SF Bay Area and LA + I do some work with partners down here.

Having a local guy help bounce ideas off can be priceless.

I don't mind bouncing ideas to one another.

So, I'm currently browsing all the easy listing engines, zillow, realtor, the rest, trying to get a feel for what's available, what things are priced at etc... and simultaneously bouncing that off an interesting recent experience of my own.

After a month I came by to collect rent and she wrote me a check and the account had insufficient funds available, so it bounced.
