MARYLAND INVESTORS - Pre foreclosure laws

[Mike Goikhberg]

Any experienced investors from the maryland area care to weigh in on the issue of marketing to pre-foreclosures in baltimore? I read the regulations stating that you must be a certified foreclosure consultant if you are goign to be doing ANY dealings with the bank on behalf of the homeowner. However, an experienced developer/investor I spoke with at one meet up was not aware of any issues with marketing to these individuals. Also, what exactly does it take to get the "foreclosure consultant" cert??
