Hi @Billie Forrester, please add me to your buyer's list as well. Thanks, Jeff

@Rob Brautigam & thank you @Filip Gjorgioski

You know how you might be sitting around sometimes and come across a random property. Then that property leads to to other somewhat related, but still not focused searches. Next thing you know you are looking at properties either halfway across the country or digging in deeper in areas you are familiar with. That is sort of what happened here. I came across a listing that had "seller financing available" in the description and got my mind rolling. Was hoping that I could, without too much effort, identify properties that had similar descriptions.  

Redfin has the ability to search "remarks" (which my understanding are specific remarks agents can enter in to a variety of different fields, but doesn't query the description) under the Home Facts in their filter.

Thank you again for the help. I'm disappointed that what I am looking for doesn't exactly exist (I am searching in Illinois and Wisconsin) but also relieved that I hadn't missed something really obvious.

Hi Everyone,

I am not a real estate agent and do not have full access to the MLS. I'd love to be able to search the descriptions of MLS listings for specific terms used. Does anyone know of a way to do that for free online? I can't seem to find a way to do it efficiently through Redfin or Realtor.com - perhaps I am SOL.

Hi Shane, welcome! I used to live in Grayslake and now rent the house. Taxes are dumb .. I couldnt sell it for more than $315k and I am paying $13k in annual taxes. No kids in the school district either. Best of luck if you relocate.

Hello Hello @Carin Kveton! I am right down the road in Grayslake where I am renting a SFH. Are your residential and commercial properties located in Lake Villa?

Jeff

Thank you, @Craig Wilcox

I will be making the purchase shortly. Appreciate all the help here.

Jeff

Yup, sounds good. Thanks for all the information.

Thanks for the tips, @Matthew Olszak

I will not be in one place long enough to be in the 75hr class so I am going to go the estudy route. Was the reading able to be put on a Kindle?

Has anyone bought the e-course? Can I take the exam without buying the pre license? If so, does anyone have the program I can buy from them?

Thanks, Jeff

@Kevin C. bumping. When I read your comment on not fading from the thread I was really pumped. Can't wait to hear the 3mo update, hopefully you have been busy.
