I have 10 plus year relationship with them.

Some lenders, if you have a good relationship, may allow you to bundle up multiple properties together to increase the loan amount.

That can crumple your relationship with other agents even when you had a good faith belief that your client was going to keep to their promise.

@NA WolffReal estate is a relationship business.

@Mao Pmn most established contractors you don't have a relationship with will be hesitant to follow you around to give bids on properties your are not at least under contract on. 

And keep in mind...Terms are important, but never as important as credibility and relationship.

If the facts are as stated and there was a good tenant landlord relationship prior, your landlord is being a first class *&^and is extremely shortsighted to boot.

While the foundation companies come out for free normally, you may want to tip them $50 for giving you the estimate and giving you priority and develop a relationship with someone....or learn to do it yourself.   

Put it this way, relationships with wholesalers are free so why not make as many as possible.

My investment property mortgage is through Wells Fargo so I was definitely going to reach out to them since we already have a relationship.
