You also need the Protestant Work Ethic and an extreme drive to be successful.

If the letter comes from the attorney, states specific legal reasons why you are entitled to reduce the amount due on your note, I the previous owner will be much less likely to protest your claims.  

Otherwise, there'd be a protest (we like to protest here) and such.

This is how it reads: "All parties to this Note, including maker and any sureties, endorsers, or guarantors hereby waive protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, and notice of acceleration of maturity and agree to continue to remain bound for the payment of principle, interest and all other sums due under this Note and the Deed of Trust notwithstanding any change or changes by way of release, surrender, exchange, modification or substitution of any security for this Note or by way of any extension or extensions of time for the payment of principal and interest; and all such parties waive all and every kind of notice of such exchange or changes and agree that the same may be made without notice or consent of any of them."

Ann Watkins I find your comments pretty ironic considering I've seen a lot of protesters on the news who are "excited to a frenzy and foaming at the mouth" and actually "drawing blood."

Its also possible they aggressively protest there county assessment every year. 

It has been met with lots of protests and an outcry from landlords and people in general.

lived through the Walker protest in Madison, it stuns me people aren't reacting to the non budget more vocally.  

As a lender we clearly state in our term sheet and Letter of Intent the relationship of the parties - and many brokers protest or ask us to "hide" the fact that they are intermediaries - we of course decline.The truth is that while it is possible to gain a SLIGHTLY better rate, or terms for any given deal risk, there is no  money available for tremendously cheaper rates than is customary for the type of deal, borrower and risk.So, if you are trying to finance an industrial building, with a non credit tenant in place, and you are looking for 65% LTV, and you have decent credit, and money is available at 12-14% with 3-5 points, an offer of 7% interest and 1 point is totally bogus.

I was able to submit a protest from my current property, and got somewhat an average deal.
