I felt like I did a great job at building rapport with these investors.Problem I am having is that while there is some motivation they are not receptive to the ARV*70% - Repair- my fee= MAO formula.I tweak the numbers from 70%-80% and my fee schedule from $10k-5k depending on amount of the ARV.I get the impression that they have been approached with numbers like this before and feel that the offer is “stealing” the property.Most of their properties I have seen look really nice and well-kept and most have good tenants in place.I also recognize that these are not truly motivated sellers but they do have some degree of wanting to sell some of their properties, just at higher margins than I would like.So the question is: Should I just give these sellers an offer and stick to the formula and move on if rejected.

So, if a basic member finds out about a PIG deal in the making, asks to participate and brings his share of downpayment money, he would be rejected because he did not pay PIG fee?

I am a Libra, I like balance and do not like conflict so toughing up my skin to not personalize rejection from the resulting phone calls has not been easy.  

I also understand the AA forms are most likely often used for rejections and in those cases I'm sure landlords have no desire to continue the communication with the applicant, but what about in this situation where I am considering conditional approval?

@Chris GouldMight work for some, but I just send you to voicemail or reject the call and block you.I send personal letters of my interest in a property.

That's face to face rejection.

I have had numerous people reject that offer and then come back months later asking if I was still interested or respond to the drip campaign ready to sell at my price. 

., You'll notice if you read carefully, I never said that calling 500 people and having them reject you is how Sub2 works.  

I end up having a lot of offers rejected, but I am in the business of buying deals and not just collecting properties.
