The foundation work, the exodus of so many former tenants, the appraiser visit, and the inquiries about Airbnb from strangers in the back parking lot are all signs that this apartment house is changing into a kind of hotel.

nobody likes the thought of their business sitting on a toilet owned by a previous stranger.  

They look childish.I too send out cards and letters - but I'd like to think that my contact with them is much more on a professional level - I like my communication to total strangers is effective and professional.

If they aren't opening the door for homeowner, why would they open it for a stranger? 

I will say if they haven't paid attention to the bank,  they probably won't to you.... but stranger things have happened. 

The snow is coming, so you have to have a plan and not rely on the kindness of strangers (or tenants).On DIY: I see some smaller scale landlords with a plow on their truck (and it may pencil out if you have enough units or be ideal if you have one anyway to do a long driveway or private road to your home).

Your house is worth tens of thousands of dollars and you are trusting it to complete strangers.  

Canadians have a strong bias towards using Realtors and banks and generally don't know about the alternatives, so as a wholesaler there's not only the privacy issues, but a basic trust issue when asking a stranger to sell me their house.So Tiago, you suggest driving for dollars and just straight up knocking on those doors?

The thought of actually meeting a stranger can be terrifying.5.  

Eugene Stokes, are you so brainwashed by this Snap Flip company that you do not see it’s an envasion of privacy to give all your financial information to complete strangers consisting of balances in your bank accounts, investments, 401k, credit cards, and disclose credit limits?
