I have a couple of great contacts in the Portland area if you would like to talk to some mortgage people and see where you fit.

Hello Investors, Does anyone have a good source for a company or person to hire that can help manage incoming leads, such as checking for motivation, scheduling appointments and things of this nature, 1 first point of contact after a lead comes in from direct mail, website, or cold calling company who has generated a lead?

To prevent this in the future, please just write a custom message to each person that you try to contact on BiggerPockets!
