The first week of the month is the busiest week because of the rent collections and there is a lot of communication from tenants that are going to be late.The busiest is a day like tomorrow, the 1st fell on the weekend, so, it will be extra busy

Your offers, how they are presented, how you communicate them, what terms are in there, the disclosures or requests you put all make an impact on how you and your offer are perceived by an agent and thus to the seller. 

Bob BurnsIMO almost every guru approach to real estate success is flawed because it teaches that one method/strategy will be successful in every market in all economic climates.  

Poor Ann and I were having great difficulty communicating with each other.

Or you can have an assistant share the credential, so they can handle the communication on behalf of you.

Some say "in writing" while others may specify the method of writing (e.g. certified letter).

But this is how I approach planning at the highest level. some additional context you can put that into land and with guidance get non recourse debt on one development deal that will change your life. there's the slow method of one at at time or go bigger for 100+ units with capital raise. tons of strategies but great points all around Scott 

They want stellar performance on: 1) listing, 2) screening, 3) leasing, 4) inspections, 5) maintenance, 6) lease enforcement, 7) communication, 8) liability mitigation, 9) tenant management, 10) market trends, 11) technology, 12) move-in / move-out process, 13) handling/disposing of tenant property, 14) resolving disputes, 15) vendor relationship and management, etc. 

I don’t have any written communication where I asked to remove instruments but I did it at phone to person who worked for rest of thing at my home.

That being said, I'd rather delay for a "sure-fire" method (lease non-renewal), rather than do something reckless in a way they could defeat or push back in court, if it came to that.
