Due to the aforementioned issues, after reaching out to each one 3 times each, we converted these leads to about 8 appointments, where we had 4 no shows.

Thanks @Linda Weygant I have actually scheduled an appointment with a real estate attorney and I will be utilizing both options of buy and hold and flipping depending on the circumstances.  

Early May the seller emailed me asking if my offer was still good and I setup an appointment to meet at the home. 

It’s well appointed,  but more cozy than fancy,  leaning towards rustic.  

However, I include a request to not walk the property prior to our showing appointment out of respect for the safety and privacy of my existing tenants also living at the property.Maybe a RE agent out there has another angle as to why they would be so intrusive about the ID up front without at least some inside pics and an amenities list.

@Justin Guidry,Good Morning Justin,Very new to investing, but I have been a caregiver in two ALF in Lafayette.Day to day duties were to check on every resident every two hours, assist them to and from activities if needed, such as the in home salon, church, etc. taking the residents to doctor's appointments and the light houskeeping of the rooms. 

Secondly when you're not working 2-4 open houses a weekend (yes that's a must when getting started) and having the 30-60 minute coffee appointment, focus on establishing accountability partners (brokers who have also started recently or in a similar groove as you), listen to podcasts or read books, and work establishing good habits early and developing a good mindset. 

I have a few appointments already with syndication sponsors (which I am already invested with and prospective).

Surely you don't make an appointment to see every property that someone calls about, after I take the first call what are the next steps I should be taking?

It was also being sold through a court appointed commissioner.
