Wayne Courreges III, CPM® (managing principal of Crai Partners) explains why sponsor responsiveness is a core criterion for passive real estate investors: timely, honest communication (typically within ~24 hours), multiple contact options (email, phone, in-person), and prompt follow-up when an immediate answer isn’t available.
