Real estate is a long term investment and you need to think long term about it, you will also become a landlord, you need to understand this is NOT a passive investment that you can easily sit on, your tenants will constantly run into problems and you will need to communicate with them in some fashion (whether it’s through someone in the vicinity as your go between or you yourself, this is something you need to think about while home prices are at historic highs).

It starts by communicating your desires to your agent. 

Communication was that forbearance during the pandemic would have NO impact on the borrower.

Which makes % of efficiency the easiest way to communicate the efficiency of heat pumps compared to gas. 

They communicate quiclky (sms).- You must do a surprise inspection of where they are currently living. 

Communication is key listen to what the other party is saying but also hear what they are telling you and use this during your negotiation.

Isn't that an indication that they have been communicating?

Example: An air conditioner goes on the blink and it takes the property management company 3 to 5 days to get price quotes and then has to make several communications with the property owner to get an approval.

This is possible, it is all about communication with the bank, and seller to make sure everything is done properly.

The owner has a friend that is a realtor that will be handling the sale of the property and I have been communicating with them but they are not providing a price and they are not doing an appraisal.
