Generally you need a relationship with the company handling the REO. One way brokers establish relationships is by doing Broker Price Opinions (BPO) for the companies. Do enough BPO's and they may give you a listing.

Hello there Johnathan-

Welcome to the club and I do hope you get to market with as many biggerpockets members as you can. Now I would like to know a little bit more about you as I too am located in Los Angeles and deal in real estate! Thanks for your time and can't wait to hear from you and what you have to say about todays form of REI!

I sent you an email. Perhaps we can share some information.

Thanks for the welcome.

I am involved with the high end homes of West Los Angeles. The market has slowed and inventory has increased but prices have not come down much, maybe 5 to 10% so far. Not too many REO's and foreclosures but that is increasing.

Other areas like Palmdale or Compton have been flooded with foreclosures and prices are off 20%.

Start at the bookstore. There are numerous books that will give you all the information you need for $20. Avoid expensive seminars and gurus.
I would just search on Amazon or Barnes and Noble for the top rated or best selling on the topic.

In CA the first to record would have priority. So in your case the Senior would be second in priority and a buyer would still be subject to the Jr. since it was recorded first.

Check with a local title expert to determine the law in your area.

Any Los Angeles Real Estate investors interested in getting together?

I saw there was another thread of prior meetings but the thread was locked.

Anyone know anything about the "Real Estate Investors Club of Los Angeles?"

Post: US Dollar - are you moving to other currencies?

Everbank has a website where you can open accounts in different currencies. I think it is a good idea considering the sharp drop of the dollar the last five years. This trend will probably continue because of the imbalance in the trade and budget deficit.
