I'll have to get used to getting one's hopes up a little bit (not a lot, just thinking that with quite a few things happening, one of them might stick) and then having a day where nothing goes really right. I'm sure, in the beginning, there are MANY more of those than the other kind. But I'm also sure it will be worth it.
The homeowner from here in town no showed today. She had asked me to call and remind her of the appt., but all day her phone was busy. So I went and hoped. She didn't show up but I did look around outside and in some windows. It all looks like it needs updating, so it's not that hard to estimate really. I left her a message.
The house I might sandwich lease is starting to bug me. She wants a tenant application, background check, credit check etc. Annoying. I told her I'm kind of offended, as I'm another investor and personal/professional refs. should be enough. I'm also not happy because she is continuing to advertise a ton of places, doesn't think all my stuff will be processed in time for this weekend, and then expects me to still put a lot of effort into it, when she is probably going to have it leased before I'm even "approved". I told her I'd lost interest.
Did talk to a local investor today who is ready to buy. I told him he'd be the first one I'd call when I get one under contract.
Also, the Honeytown Rd., property, I was about to place an offer and the agent said that he has a verbal contract as of today. Oh well. I did make an offer on a Vine St in Medina property. Trying to do at least 3 offers/week.
