Be straight with all interested, explain there are multiple applicants and taking best and final by x date.

If I was to move on OOS investing I would certainly plan on multiple visits to the area while building a reliable team on the ground.I'm currently absorbing all of the information I can get my hands on, so i'm sure i'll be posting lots of questions.

One of them is to buy multiple income properties like Home and incomes and block of flats, these offer better returns. 

I enter multiple codes just in case (one for tenant as primary as well as a tenant backup code and also my personal code so I can get in). 

They have no skin in the game.

The first two were multiple-offer scenarios, and I had to pay over asking on one. 

@Danny Webber thank you I appreciate the truth and if I need to take more time building my cash pile to have more skin in the game by maybe wholesaling or just working than that's fine.

I don't want to get multiple pulls on my credit.

Lenders want you as an owner to have "Skin in the game".

if so, i hate to say, but you are probably not a priority for them, they probably have other investors with multiple properties that they make sure get taken care of first. they sound like a small PM company then if they could not free someone up to show your property.I had an experience when i bought my 1st property, the realtor i bought it with did PM as well, as i was emailing questions it got to the point she did not answer me so i went with another PM co. was with them for 4 years, then they started getting too greedy, then i re interviewed the 1st PM co ( not too many choices of PM co. where i invest) and she told me she regretted not responding fast enough to me and not getting my business before.
