Steve, Precisely why I changed them.

I talk to the agent, ask about themselves, how they came upon the client, ask about their client & so on but I do not talk about the offer, primarily because I have not formally written it out precisely because I am looking for clues.I have done this for years & the vast majority of the time (85-90%) of the time, my clients get a great deal AND the other side doesn’t feel manipulated or cheated by a hustler.I learned much of these techniques from taking a deep dive & studying Neurolinguistics along with psychology therapy techniques to a point where I would have a Masters if I had gone to college - I think I hold the record for dropping out of college - 7 times & completing 2 semesters. 

So I was thinking about it too although i'd think it's way too early.I'm happy to answer any precise queries if I can.

And the latest Real Estate Fisherman title is on precisely this topic: buying "colonies" of houses/properties (especially if these were lumped together, for example, but applicable if these are in some reasonable geographic proximity).With these properties paid for, and the seller likely looking at some exit strategies, it is the type of situation where the key ingredient may be your creativity and ability to meet the sellers need (for income, security, etc) and structure a deal to meet your investment goals....Best of luck!
