My objective is that one on one meeting, and anything else is a distraction.

It only matters whether the cost of taking the action (perhaps factoring in distraction from the business's vision and annual objectives) is less than or equal to the expected benefit.

Go through the process again and see if there's anything better out there that meets your needs.Try to avoid chasing the shiny object.

Basically, if they have a doctor's note stating that they require said animal due to a disability, you can't tell them no, unless:- There is reliable objective evidence that the animal poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others that cannot be reduced or eliminated by a reasonable accommodation;- There is reliable objective evidence that the animal would cause substantial physical damage to the property of others;- The presence of the assistance animal would pose an undue financial and administrative burden to the provider; or- The presence of the assistance animal would fundamentally alter the nature of the provider's services.Unfortunately, deposits or pet surcharges are not allowed for animals covered by these laws.Now, all this said, landlords in my area usually just deny or evict folks with doctor's noted pets anyway and I've never seen someone bring suit.

If not more trips.Is your objective to move forward or to get money?

But you can also sit off the ocean and still achieve the same objectives without the big price tag.

No system is perfect, so don't waste your time chasing after the next shiny object.

While we tend to live in a "more is better" society - I'm going to challenge that notion a bit and tell you that quality is better than quantity.

I used to spend hours and hours with the highlighters and roller wheel doing quantities... what once took me an hour I can do in a few minutes. 

Although I'm a Broker, my main objective is to become a successful real estate Investor!
