Anyone can "sound good" on paper, but there really is something to be said for looking them in the eye and having a face-to-face conversation with them.How many of us have had an online dating experience in the past where the person presented one way via emails, but quite a different (and usually unpleasantly surprising) way in person? 

Hi BP,I am doing a lot of restructuring of my current business's / LLCs and realize that my "house" is not in order which has been causing some unwanted stress. 

It is in an unpleasant colour which doesn't match the wall colour (we painted the entire home).We renovated our old home and rented it, so in the beginning, I thought to call the same custom glass company, who helped us with our old home renovation works.

imagine how unpleasant and awkward it will be living right next to people you had to approve, all of whom now know you to be "The Man."

I also suggest a drive-by so they are not unpleasantly surprised by the neighborhood when they to the showing, and just keep on driving by anonymously as I wait outside.

I bought rental properties with a partner 14 years ago and it was a unpleasant experience over all.

There are so many unwanted dogs in shelters.

I have been struggling with losing a few unwanted pounds myself. 

I also suggest a drive-by so they are not unpleasantly surprised by the neighborhood when they to the showing, and just keep on driving by anonymously as I wait outside.

You're right - it's a very delicate balance that I don't trigger the an unwanted reaction with a too-aggressive bid.
