Mersades,

You can also drive for dollars. I found a very profitable probate deal  by l leaving a note inside of a dirty screened porch. The house look bad with an overgrown yard, old dusty car in the carport, etc...it actually looked creepy. The owner had died w/o a will and it had just come out of probate. His son called me and we struck a deal. 

It took a little longer to close because he had to post a legal ad for 4 weeks for any potential heirs to come forward. The flip is now underway with a nice backend profit. This one makes up for all the ones I haven't gotten by leaving notes on doors or porches. Good luck and keep your eyes open while driving neighborhoods. FYI...This house is actually in a good neighborhood with 350-500k ARV's!

Phil
