A recent BP blog article by Scott Trench had the phrase “. . . guys like us here on BiggerPockets . . . “ I commented about the gendered language, because if people don’t realize they’re doing it, it can never change.  

Sims is a joke and not worth the money as there is no value.

John WoodenI've never heard this quote phrased as a question before.

You need to think about key words and phrases that will catch the sellers attention.

No joke.

My gut tells me to go shorter with not too much detail and to stay away from trite phrases, e.g.

Tod Radford back with the cow jokes, huh?

And then another investor used the term motivated seller one day at lunch about a non-motivated seller he had gotten a call from and I joked that they were motivated, they were motivated enough to call you for some reason.Result I started my unmotivated data base, dead leads, and started farming them sort of, just like my agent had done in the real estate office.

Maybe I shouldn't have used the phrase "day laborer" when describing what I am speaking of as this is undoubtedly connected to "unskilled".

Is this some sort of joke?"
