How's it going in Ohio?
The laws in your state and in mine are completely different that's why I believe we have two different views on the foreclosure process.. You can read the difference here:

Well as far as it can not be done, mabey not in Ohio but
1) I am currently working with one in the OC and making contacts with a few in LA. One of the Subjects we speak about is Bulk purchasing for which I have a banker that helps me out.
2) They don't give a rats !@#$%% about the realtors, if they piss one off, who cares there are thousands waiting in line that will happily take over where the other left off.
3) I don't know how much they get paid but I do know that in California the manager gets the property approx 6 weeks after Trustee Sale and the faster they get it off their books the better.
4) In Ohio Opening bid is 2/3 of Apprasial Value in California there is no appraisal proccess or Sherriff (See Laws above). Opening Bid is the Loan amount Plus Fees. I do not chase properties unless they have a minimum of $125,000 in equity. So in Fact my LTV can be as low as 40% on up. Ex: Property worth 550,000 Note worth 350,000 Fees 20,000 I purchase the property for 370,000. I know the Value difference in Ohio and California is pretty hefty and it may seem that I am not telling the truth, so go to Realtor.com and check out the values yourself.
5) I am a Realtor
6) Units are the Fastest road to retirement
7) Prices in riverside are dropping like a Rock it's too scary to buy there unless you are getting a 2000 note or earlier or it's units you want to keep.
8) Truth Never hurts Truthful people, it helps us Grow.
