It is very difficult to succeed in any field you do not become a student of first.I would preface your comments with the concept of "You Don't Know What You Don't Know"  and then emphasize all of the point you brought up.

I did go to college and got a degree in business that emphasized real estate.  

I would like to emphasize this first and foremost: I am not asking for a job.

Our proven strategies emphasize sound investing in carefully researched, quality properties that have steady, long-term capital appreciation potential.

Just to emphasize, if that were the terms, 99% of it will be a decline the other 1% I will need to add $3k to the bill, that is my admin cost to just sign and perform the contract they way you want it to be - and $3k is cheap.

My mentor also strongly emphasized the need to have your letter opened as has already been mentioned.

@Caleb RogersI'd just like to re-emphasize the main reason I'd have a primary single-family residence instead of renting.

Is there more I can emphasize?

I also went to college, not that it is mandatory, and I got a business degree that emphasized real estate.  

My business college degree was emphasized by real estate.
