I cannot verify what the client is doing currently.It's really annoying when you get these requests directly from a lender without ever getting a heads-up from the client.The best one was request from lender to write a letter that a 36K withdrawal from the self-employed client's business bank account wouldn't materially harm his business! 

Maybe reduce rent $ if necessary to get it rented.There are great tenants willing to overlook 'less than desirable' aspects like water in the basement if the price is right (10-20% cheaper than an equivalent property market rent value), Particularly if it is in a desirable area.If its just annoying wet ground, I would probably just leave it as is and bandaid as much as I could...If its deep (standing water); I sold an OLD stone foundation victorian WAYYY up North (Where (TRIVIA QUESTION!) 

If they use that annoying "one click response" on Zillow, I merely cut/paste the ad questions and send it to them.

This is basic info you need to know to really understand the points I am trying to make.Here is the difference.Finding them means you have to send mailers, and calls, spend money, and deal with angry annoyed people.

It's annoying but it's just the way it works in hot markets.

As you get more established you will get more attention as well from brokers....which can be annoying sometimes when they try to pawn off their crap  :)

IMO, far more annoying is when these same people with no real knowledge or experience or expertise decide to hang up a virtual shingle and begin brokering notes, or as some gurus call it, “brokering cash flows”.

No one likes a grumpy man who passes judgement without having a clue and can't let go when told to stop being annoying.

It's annoying frankly...

Don't get me wrong, I've had tenants with great income, great references and great credit that were still annoying, but in general, better management leads to better tenants, and you can achieve this either on your own OR buy hiring a great property manager.
