Back when I did land I would tell them my fee on the phone.

There might be a website or phone number to somebody in the building inspection dept or there might even be a dept similar to Phila's License and Inspections Dept.

Or sometimes I would call a plumber out, while on the phone, the plumber might ask "what happens when you turn just the hot water on?"

To date 95% has occurred through txt, email and phone.

My phone was ringing off the hook!

I just got off the phone with my Broker/ Realtor friend who echoed that same as you both.

I know some Landlords that do it all the time with many many properties and NO bad outcome.Put the lockbox on the property and after the callers pass phone screening, give them the code to show it to themselves.

My next example, I speak with HML over the phone whose information I was forwarded.

I use my phone calls and emails counts to tell me if I have my unit priced right.

Well let me say, it's ok to LOOK FOR DEALS but don't let that be your main source for deals because this biz can be very frustrating even when your phone is ringing off the hook.MARKETING, MARKETING, MARKETINGYou Can Do It, Good LuckJUST MY 2 CENTS BUT THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO SKIN A MEE-YOW
