Pulling Probate Leads!!!

[Matthew Beharrysingh]

Hey BP Family,

I went down to my local probate office here in Spartanburg, SC for the first time this past Monday. Using their computer to look through records was a little confusing, but the nice ladies in the office were very happy to show me how to properly navigate their system and answer all of my questions. Which I asked a lot lol... I plan on going back tomorrow to just sift through info and continue to familiarize myself with their system. My question to you guys/gals is when pulling probate leads what criteria are you specifically looking for? Do you consider open probate cases a lead or even closed cases? If a closed case is a lead how far back do you look? 1-2 years? Also when I was there on Monday I was cross checking recent open probate cases with the Tax assessor site and sometimes the names did not match on who owned the property. I assumed that that particular individual was renting the property they were living in. Am I right to make that assumption or could it be something else? Thanks everyone ahead of time for your response, it is much appreciated!!!

Thanks,

Matt
