How to find foreclosures and short sales

[Todd Sullivan]

Hello All!

I am trying to find out strategies to finding foreclosures and short sales outside of the mls. Has anyone had good experience with RedX?  I called my local County Clerk and they said they don’t compile a list. The Records Dept isn’t of much help either. They occasionally put a list out for tax liens, but that’s it. 

Thanks all in advance!

99% of all short sales and foreclosure get listed in the mls. If you are looking for leads that may become foreclosures/shorts sales you could look at NOD/lis pendens lists, or lists of people late on their mortgage. A list of people in forbearance would be amazing, but I couldn't tell you how to get access to that.
