I'd be happy to refer any of my clients your way if they are seeking a Realtor who understands investments. 

They tried to push back and used the term "service animal" and started referring to the legal protections of a service animal. 

So what you are doing is paying for a list consisting of people who explicitly DO NOT want to sell their house. 

It's critical to to get references and work with BB&B-accredited and fully insured companies when this amount of money is involved.

And thanks for the book reference, @Kevin Sobilo!

Ask for recommendations in the community or I can also refer you to some.

I have heard Texas and most areas would be closer to $100 when its all said and done.You can find good contractors through realtors, HBA in your area, REI Facebook groups and meetups etc.Make sure to check references of past and current clients, visit some jobs in process as you can tell a lot about a contractor by how the job site is kept up and organized.

@Shannon MogilinskiAre you referring to the residential market?

Question:  What specific Insurance are you referring to?

If they fill out the application and the first thing you see is that they have 17 pets, you can immediately deny them without wasting time checking landlord references, running a credit/criminal background, etc.
