I typically let those go to voice mail (im dont like being on the phone) so I try and get them as much info as I can in the email that they get. 

I see this confusion often, not typically from agents though."

Good for the typical resident but will make a less valuable opportunity for investors riding the waves up and down in this market.

Those are typically the agents that have the best reach and relationships at that price point.

In these scenarios, I typically call the tenant and set up a meeting, and then in a very non-threatening way, just ask them what their current plans are as far as if they're hoping to renew at this point, or if they're looking to move soon.

@Brian Pulaski, The the problem is,  lenders are simply terrified as they're not used to saying what they know to be facts if it's at odds with the establishment Realtors' reviews on any subject in a public forum.They aren't typically cowards, just their view is limited and voice muffled from their position of being so far up north, that you can't tell where they end, and the other begins.On the other hand, Realtors are not used to a mortgage broker challenging their opinions and comments in a public forum either.
