Post: How do you find a trustee

Hello,

I have been looking at a property that has fire damage, a host of liens and code violations in the county of LA.  My problem is I can not find the trustee.  The Property is in trust and the owner passed away.  

Any ideas how to find the trust attorney or trustee ?

Thank you,

Loren

@Wade Alderson

Don't try California because that amount of money wouldn't even get you a modest home.  

Your best bet is to go to some real estate investing meetings and get to know the private lenders.  I buy 1st and pay between 7-9% with little risk.

The only downside with this investing is you give up depreciation.  

Good luck!

@Alexander Felice

Thanks I made a switch from a major bank blue logo to a major bank with horses!  The account was not that old.

I know now from all the good advise to wire transfer without a headache.  

Would you suggest trying a smaller bank?  I feel like the folks working at this branch are not business savvy and probably cater to personal accounts.  

Thoughts 

Thanks

@Matt K.

I will figure out how to develop a better relationship with the bankers.  It seem like there isn't really anyone at this branch that is on the ball!

Thanks for the comments

Hello experienced flippers.  

I just flipped my first house and had a sizable check from escrow.    I deposited into my business bank and they put a long hold on the deposit.

What is the best way to deposit these sizable checks? 

Thanks in advance

Loren

@Gary Swank & @Alex Deacon

Thank you for the comments. With the information I feel motivated to as least get MLS access to find and analyze deals and perhaps keep some fees.

Thank you.
