Thinking of one or two stubborn owners now might be willing to negotiate within another 14 months....

I agree with @Nathan G. and would just reiterate to the tenants that despite the stubborn stain, the carpet was professionally cleaned prior to their move-in.This is a situation where your leasing procedures and lease document can either protect you or sink you.

She is very stubborn and says she’s tired of maintaining and paying the bills every month, she is eager to just move a tenant in.

I have heard many stories about stubborn sellers eventually breaking down and selling to people they have been in contact with for months or years.

The lender is pretty stubborn.

I have tried MANY marketing channels so I am speaking from experience.The numbers below don't include revenue from 14 deals we have in the pipeline that will be closing soon and majority of those came from Direct Mail as well.Sigh... so stubborn,People simply refuse to think on their own.Here is why sending multiple mailers to the same group is an illusion.1st Time Sending:Imagine you send out 1000 mailers and 100 people see your mailers.

I'd say the skill level needed is higher in dealing with FSBOs, they can be slow to move, stubborn ones must be shown beyond doubt, thin deals can be tricky and risky, can have issues Realtors don't want to deal with.

When I used to sell way back in the day when i wasn't yet an agent, despite the 'Principals Only' warning boldly plastered all over my FSBO listings, agents nevertheless lined up at my doors with the usual pitch even when notified in writing to cease communication, still wanting ERTS, throwing fits and all, sometimes even disrupting my open houses under the guise of bringing 'buyers ready to sign' that were 'on their way'  yet never showed.Granted over those years, there were 1 or 2 out of dozens upon dozens agents who were up for the challenge to compete with my own offers, but most others were just too greedy or whatever and just would reiterate the holdover clause like parrots, pretending to not understand holdover clause is why exclusive agency without right to sell remains a viable compromise and formidable challenge to truly measure up to.have you as investors (and/or as agents) ever had similar gripes with stubborn/aggressive agents who yet weren't up for the challenge competing with the owner(s) themselves to find the best offer that successfully closes?

We are firmly in a seller’s market.The rental inventory had a similarly rapid decline in Q1 and has remained below one month in Q2.The stubbornly low inventory for both sales and rentals can only mean one thing—rising prices and rents.Interest Rates in 2024The interest rate dipped by about 0.5% starting in mid-December 2023 and January, which triggered an unseasonal price rise for both months (See Q1 2024 Las Vegas Market Update).

That should answer the question of whether it is a stubborn seller, or if you've found a diamond in the rough with a seller who just hasn't had a pitch (offer) to look at quite yet.
