She is a older woman and her husband is a pastor of a church.

My real estate agent says it should be ok for a week extension, but I made the mistake of googling it and saw that in 2010 Wells Fargo stated they werent taking extensions.Cons: Wells Fargo might not be taking extensions any longer, I am hoping somebody has dealt with them and knows frist hand.Pros: The owner had his water shut off intentionally which delayed our appraisalThe owner had his electricity shut off after that which delayed the appraisalThe basement flooded which pushed us to have more than one appraisal.PLEASE HELP!!!

. :)Anyway, once had an applicant, couple, middle ages, both had jobs, came in Jaguar, well dressed (although I think it was after church), had their own house, everything looked fine until I dug deeper.

And they didn't pay the electric so it's shut off.

He did a very very poor repair on the wall, leaving cracks in several other areas going entirely through the brick, window sills are slanted, windows and doors won't shut.

The water was shut off from the pool, the heater malfunctioned and kept burning.

The last tenants that moved out of a sfh were perfect tenants with the exception of that they took the batteries out of all the detectors & shut off the breaker for the entire system!

I definitely worded that wrong, I was referring to sales/cold calling techniques that prevent a definitive direct shut down in the conversation.I understand a walk through appointment is the goal of this conversation however, I don't want to come across as some cut throat number crunching beast trying to make a steal on their property.Maybe asking if there is anyone currently living in the property and what their future plans are would be the best method, then seeing if they may be open to selling, if so setting up an appointment so we can make an offer.

Never shut down your machine, that is just an excuse for the lazy.

That's just annoying.People who are probably not worth my time:1) Anyone that says "I've been doing some wholesaling" (shut up, no you haven't, you've just been spamming people with no understanding of what you're actually doing).2) Anyone that constantly wants to put out lowball offers without having seen the property and sends over a vague sounding LOC letter from a vague sounding private money lender.3) People that demand to negotiate my commission prior to beginning a business relationship.Those are the basics...
