If you use a partial ar technique to tactically resolve this prospect's problem as part of your proposed solution you'll do more deals (if you're actively generate qualified leads). 

@Justin WilcoxDear prospective tenant, I understand you need to know immediately.

Every time I post a $10/hour entry level job, I get over a hundred applications from recent college graduates with lots of school debt and no real prospect for paying it back. 

Lots of wholesalers and others will tell you they sent the same letter to a prospective seller 10 times, once a month for 2 years, even for multiple years before it actually turned into a deal.

I hope to be pestering you all about prospective deals aplenty in the new year.

Now I find myself spending a lot of time screening tenants for the showing ( no need to invite someone that won't qualify to rent when they apply) This pre-screening takes at least 20 minutes per tenant- if I get 10-20 calls it takes much too long to screen all of these prospective tenants.

What attracts me to the area is the medical center with prospective tenants who work/study and would like a shorter commute.

Only at it a month.My plan forward is to call a few PM companies as a prospective tenant and the one that is the most attentive, and has the easiest systems will be my new management company.Thank all of you for your replies!

As soon as they see the last tenant move out and workmen over there, prospective tenants are at my doorstep.

Maybe some of these ideas will help you -Learn Power prospecting - where to find the motivated seller (not listed real estate)Negotiating - how to put the deal together - how to control equity and take possessionContract Engineering - what important clauses to use to able you to assign properties, what to do if things don't work - how not to get sued - Controlling real estate - how to control hundreds of properties with little or no money using check funds - delayed financingCreative Financing - Delayed settlement - banking days - hybrid offers - joint ventures - partnering with sellers - vertical break ups - front porch clauses and contracts - etcA team - a lawyer -they are a dime a dozen - agents - the same price - title companies there are many right in your back yard - none of the above will help you until you have something for them to work on.
