I just had a property turn over and followed this procedure for the showings:I advertise the property and handle all calls, emails, texts on it and set up viewing appointments (I group them all within 30-45 minutes on one day)The current tenants show the property to prospective rentersWhen someone applies, they email or fax in the application and pay the application fee via PayPal (although I am now trying out Cozy for applications) and I process the applicationIf the application passes, I prepare and email over the lease for signatureWhen the lease is signed and sent back to me, I send over a payment request for the first month's rent (via Dwolla or Cozy)At the check-in, I drive to the property to check them in myself and collect the security deposit in secured funds (or use Cozy to collect it beforehand)I have been doing the above for a long time and it has worked pretty well.

I'd recommend you set appointments between normal business type hours,, 9 am to like 6:30 pm for showings, Monday - Saturday.  

I have appointment with title co this week to try to convey to them my business model and needs.

I never said any such thing in writing or otherwise and can prove it, as they were not home at the time the appointment was supposed to occur, so all interaction was via text and email.

Just make sure to put in the comments section of the listing that agents and buyers shouldn't bother the tenants or go there without scheduling the appointment.

I was one of two people who responded, but dropped everything to meet the seller at the property before her afternoon appointment with another investor.

Ask for an appointment to talk over being an agent.

So you might be in a limbo state for a bit.Try offering 1 month free with 13 month lease, post multiple ads and get ready to take appointments. or pay a commission to someone that will do what you can.

I have several appointments on Monday and Tuesday with realtors and I am in need of a POF letter before hand.... before applying for the loans that I may need to purchase these properties if they are acceptable.
