Find Equity own your own (DYI) for Direct Mail
Hello BP,
I know of a few paid methods to find equity in homes to market to. I was wondering if anyone has a method or resources to estimate equity on your own? In other words, if you have information from the county appraiser website (sales price and when it was sold) could you find the equity of the home? Is there a different way of doing it and on a larger scale?
Thanks,
Walter
