This would kill me.This is why a divorce is up there as one of the most stressful things a human could go through.

Quick customer service where you can actually talk to a live human rather than an automated dial system. 

So - to prevent ourselves from being overwhelmed with FOMO, here are a few things we've learned from submitting our first offer:1) There are always other and even BETTER deals2) $4k isn't really that much different in the grand scheme of a 30 year mortgage3) Making offers truly isn't hard4) Zestimates can be deceiving5) Use blizzards in April to your advantage (only the fiercest go out for a showing in blizzard conditions)6) BP needs to have a podcast episode on negotiation tactics7) Old homes may have charm, but also a lot of baggage8) Sometimes you don't always need to look at the second unit 9) Emotions are fine, we're human, duh, but you should always keep them in check with the #s, if they work, trust them10) I welcome hearing your wisdom and insight you've gained after making your first offer.

I might be on to something :-)I’m just curious about what would be involved in developing the site—things like environmental impact studies, human-derived biohazard containment, storm water management, below grade engineering studies and stuff like that.

For some reason, it's just human nature for some people to lie.

I think it's human nature to have some fear in a new adventure, as well as a great deal of excitement.Being a relatively shy person until I feel comfortable in any particular environment only feeds on that fear.

There are many unknowns out their to consider... forgeries on deeds, wills or other legal docs, maybe an X spouse disappeared and never signed off and now they are back, there could have been human errors on recording docs, missing heirs that all of sudden appear or maybe a seller at some point in the line ownership wasn't really of sound mind to sell and the list goes on...

It should really be a basic human right to be able to pull your own permits anyway especially if the property is in your own name.

I agree with what the others have said - I wouldn't allow an automatic booking and would instead ensure that a human has spoken with guests prior to their renting a house.

If anyone knows any actual, real human being private lenders who want to put their money with winners, then I'd appreciate an intro.
