OfflineFamily, yesterday I contacted several realtors per Matt's instruction in "30 Days to Real Estate Cash" via phone and email.
One of the realtors said that he needs a "Proof Of Funds" document from me if purchasing with cash before showing me any properties or pulling any MLS listings.
The short answer is move on to another realtor, and I will, but there has to be an answer other than that.
Is there anything I can say/strategy that I can use
that will make a realtor still want to pull the listings for me regardless of having that document?
I try to keep a Robert Kiyosaki "how can I" not "I can't" mentality.
Thoughts?

Thanks again for the info Michael. I went to the site and may be able to use it in the future but at this time I don't have the $1000 deposit that's mentioned on the site.
Having said that, what are my alternatives to getting the MLS listings without the POF. Is it only required for REOs and foreclosures? Should I look strictly for FSBOs initially?
Thoughts?
Steve,
I use Coastal Funding for POF letter. I havent had it turned down with any offer yet. Give it a try.

Thank's Laura! Went to the site and it looks like Coastal Funding will do the trick. Almost as good as clicking my heels three times. "I'm off to see the Wizard...the wonderful Wizard of Oz!"
I'll keep you posted.
