It’s worth understanding their opinion and sometimes this kind of request means they see more potential in the deals than they’re letting on.

That said, expect a 24-48-hour response time to requests/negotiations. 

They've hired an attorney and, after several attempts to extort a huge sum from my mom via cash for keys, have dwindled their request to the low thousands.

My experience has been there will be long lulls then towards the end of the month you will get flooded (at least in Philly) with requests.

As a private money broker, I strongly advise real estate investors to be cautious and avoid any lender that requests upfront cash payments.

My last one i requested a call so i could meet him at the site.  

Guests stay full stay, guest requests discount for one less toilet.  

Dave, I tried this with my 3 mortgages (attempting to move into LLCs on my attorney's advice, he also said to request written permission) but each lender only would give me a form that you fill out AFTER the fact, notifying them that you have done a transfer.
