I don't think a personal touch would hurt, I haven't tried it though so definitely test and let us know!

A large part of the test is vocabulary and understanding what to do in different situations (at least in NJ).

I was told by my GC that depending on the perc test the town could make me put in some $40,000 system if the water table is high.

The fact that they waited until the day before the rent was officially late makes it sound like they were testing you - looking to see if you came by anyway to collect the rent in person. 

Great, let's live "beta test" (after letting others deal with the "alpha tests") with a non-time sensitive vanilla W2 / 775 FICO owner occ SFR refi.

It sounds like these are lending licenses, which I'm assuming is not simply taking a weekend course and passing a test.  

From time to time it might just show you a captcha just to test you, but you can set up an "alarm/warning" to ensure a human/you completed it (it not as fast a fully automated but faster than doing everything by hand for sure).

If you no longer meet the hours test, you cannot claim the status.

I don't think there's any other business that requires as much patience the real estate.Real estate will test you.
