You seem fancied on the idea, will be impulsive on the decision, and a chicken in execution.

We just have to put up with the "step by steppers" trained to sell like a monkey.People are receptive to a pitch for impulse buying situations, extra large fries, the family cable package, they'll even fall for the larger diamond ring that will really say you love her.

Yes, you can design ways to screen them before you ever talk to them via answering services, better filters, hoops-and-hurdles, etc.. but it'll be at the cost of people who call on an impulse, and that's a great many.You could consider an entirely different approach to your marketing, such as marketing to the people who refer the type of sellers you do want to work with.

Poor money management and use of funds, lack of mature judgment, egotistical, irresponsible, impulsive, lack of self esteem, needing attention are all thoughts that may cross the minds of those you work with, like bankers.

For CYA purposes my first impulse is to require tenants to have renters insurance — if they cause a fire it gives me someone to go after with deeper pockets than a tenant.

If there is ever any need please contact your property manager and you will receive a response in less that 24 hours.....yada yada yada.To be honest, after the exchange and the malcontent tone and basically subtle insults, I didn't want them as a tenants anyway and was hoping that they would back out under their own impulse, as we are both bound for the deposit with the leasing company.

It's great to be motivated and ready and raring to go, but be sure you're not being too impulsive.

I've recently made a sort of impulse buy of a home that I am going to make my primary residence (we close next month), and I don't want to let go of my current primary because of the low interest rate I have on it.

It was sort of an impulse buy since I was very young when I first bought it and was antsy to get into my first deal, but I am making the best of it. 

Having said that, I'm impulsive and only read one book before I bought my first investment -- Long Distance Real Estate Investing.
