I've been putting out some feelers, and looking around, for both people who will sell via lease option, and who will buy, in my area.So far, I'm getting more people wanting to buy, then sell, and all of them are wanting standard rents of like $500/mo, which I'm just politely replying "Sorry, I have nothing in inventor, but if I get something, I'll notify you."

Furthermore, how best would I decide on accepting a new colleague request without getting a sense of who this person was, via an email first?

I'll connect via email, we are active in the valley, and throughout SoCal~ best, Ed
