Try to give them a call and see how they handle your request over the phone instead.If there is a specific issue you are trying to accomplish, feel free to share and maybe someone can address.side note: We're in the process of firing our current firm in order to get a new more modern and competent firm in charge of things.

Start going to REIA's and network with people, find out who the big players are and try to surround yourself with them, get educated in the field that way as well as reading blogs, listening to podcasts and asking questions here on BP!

If a seller needs or wants to sell badly, the prospect of quick, no hassle fast cash will bring him to his lowest price.So, if you go into real estate investing with little or no capital, you will be competing with all cash investors, such as myself.
