In fact, you shouldn't communicate with them at all.Read your lease.

Tenant portals, online rent payment systems, and automated communication channels process large amounts of personal data.

Terrible communication.

First and foremost, I’d like to express my gratitude in advance for any advice the BP community can offer.

The communication has been awful and the seller is furious over the one week delay, mostly because the lender will not commit to a date.

And I'm four lines of communications away, yet still hear about it.

Their communication is slow at best and you have to ask to speak with a person and hope they provide the Calendly link to schedule a time.  

I prefer larger crowds, but like you mentioned it wasn't all bad.The communication on where to go and what to do could have been better, but I still had an amazing time!

-What should my communication expectations be?

At one point I ran into a member of the Jake and Gino community at a local meetup and learned that he was able to purchase an apartment out of state without using only his money so I inquired about his experience and opened a line of communication.
