Once your broker gets that - you can have them start pushing things back upstream to get it closed.I even had a closer schedule a closing for 2 days away, to put pressure on the seller to get the paperwork done - knowing full well it wouldn't happen in 2 days, but it did happen in 5, instead of 2 to 4 more weeks of the file gathering dust.I am usually very persistent for my clients, as we really have nothing to lose!

I'd be persistent with requesting status and balance updates.

For what it's worth here are my observations.........1- 80% of the information on investing in real estate being sold ranges from totally worthless to incorrect and or possibly illegal2- another 10% might work under some circumstances but either the recipient of the information needs a much more educated and experienced background than he is led to believe or the circumstances regarding the success of the method being sold are limited to a certain geographical area or a certain type of market3- the 10% of information that has value requires work, dedication, persistence, education to be used successfully.4- Certain types of individuals can self study utilizing free information available online and learn as much or more as any program or course will teach them5- most gurus are not currently successful using the methods they teach; they may have once been successful in a particular type of market or in a particular location, but they are not currently utilizing the method they teach successfully.

If their lateness persists or even gets worse, then you may want to seek counsel for your options.Thanks a bunch!

You have to keep in mind that if you are using an NOD list, you will not be the first person contacting them, this is a very difficult list to work with, you will have to test different methods of contacting them and be very persistent.

Its a persistent rumor that's been floating around for a long time.

Persistence.

That may or may not persist.

@J Scott is right on with everything he said.In my experience most investors, experienced or not, do NOT consistently and persistently search the MLS for deals.

Persistence is key!
