Investing in Distressed Properties
Hi Everyone. I want understand more on how to find and evaluate distressed properties. I have narrowed down the list to the following:
Divorce Properties
Probate Estates
Foreclosures
Short Sales
Tax Liens
Municipal Liens
Lis Pendens
Partnership Disputes
Which databases to use to look for each? What is the best method of contact/marketing to buy property in each category?
Thank you!
