it will also lead to more investors jumping in;albiet haphazardly...but could impact prices.

I ordered 250 postcards that I'll be mailing out to multifamily owners that will hopefully generate refinance leads.

Just curious where did those leads come from?

Try not to lead with your questions - this is a skill.

That tells me that the buyer is in fantasy land.The odds of finding that deal and closing it and me getting paid is slim to none.Real brokers and agents aren't in the charity business.You might get a new agent to help a new investor and that can be the blind leading the blind.So is the buyer serious and realistic for the market is the key.There is a difference between a loser deal,marginal,good,great,and insane deal.If as an investor you can get into a good to great deal for an area you are realistic.If you are looking for an insane deal shotgunning all kinds of unrealistic offers you are not only wasting the broker/agents time but also yours as well.So do not always blame the broker/agent for not getting the deal you want.It could be you are unrealistic in your goals for the area.If investors are gobbling up properties at 50k and you want at 30k then you need to change to an area to find 30k properties or come up closer to 50k to compete.

If not, then walk the property, preferable with someone else, and video tape the entire place.

Subterrainian termites will always have tunnels that lead from their source of food and water.

You also stated you wanted to invest in better areas which leads me to believe this is a lower end area.

Collection of rents from the subsidy continued, but worked closely with their social worker to file the complaints, which lead to a court eviction.

If through a listing broker it will depend on what the listing broker entered on the MLS and MLS rules.In Georgia for instance on FMLS if as a broker you screw up and enter commission wrong,mistake things etc. you can be on the hook for the commission or lose access to the MLS.MLS's are sometimes controlled by REALTOR associations and other times are private entities that are non-profits or for-profit organizations.Also the brokers/agents involved it would matter if they were REALTORS or not.Generally your state's real estate commission does not handle commission disputes.They only care about license laws.The agent can argue procuring cause with the other agent but it should not stop your sale.Simply you would close and get your proceeds and the commission in question would be froze until a solution was given and signed in writing or a court order.There are so many variables to this and it is state specific.Procuring cause is a chain of events leading up to a sale of a property.If the chain is broken generally the broker/agents is not due a commission.The moral of the whole story is the buyers agent needs to learn how to protect themselves in the future.I am not going to court to get my agents commission when I only charge them a 300 flat fee as a broker.No legal advice
