They are usually nice enough to answer these types of questions over the phone.

Same when a radio wave passes near a high-voltage line -- the radio signal gets changed, and the receiver in the car doesn't know how to parse the changed signal...hence the static.Btw, if you put your cell phone near your car's radio receiver (antenna) and get a phone call, that will temporarily scramble your radio signal as well.

I'm thinking of going to the city halls and make some phone calls.

If not I'll change it up a bit, Phone screen, met at location show apartment, ask them to complete the application and background check at the site.Maybe I'll have the option of going to Rocketlease and filling out the application and running the background check or returning a paper copy of the application with all necessary paperwork and running the background on SmartMoves.I guess you can say this is a work in progress.

So I pick up the phone and call up my realtor to ask what the listing price is going to be.

Haven't gotten my first deal or even a phone call YET, but I did receive my 1st list today.

Now this is a small six unit building, with ALL previous owners gone and new owners either moved in or rented out, two of the six units are in foreclosure and hence vacant, and the new owners are getting familiar with rules and regulations of the HOA documents which are like six phone books, so the questions about who's responsible is met by "...well I don't know either what do YOU think?"

Get out your phone and contract the people you turned down.

Caveat: I was happy with real estate over the phone consulting I was able to get with them previously through my other legal plans.

With the possible exception of some small rural electric or propane company, I have never seen an electric/gas company pursue a personal judgment against anyone (phone and cable companies do, but rarely, and they are just quasi utilites).
