I told the agent to get lost. He told me my neighbors across the road were signing up. I contacted them and they said they weren't even approached about an offer. Years ago they sent cowboys up here to NY with 10 gallon hats and big pickup trucks to get you to sign leases. Now they send real neighborly types to get your trust.
