Hi everyone!  I am in the process of starting my new career as a house flipper.  One of my goal is to find/buy properties in my area that are abandoned.  My question is how do I go about this?  If there is no record of owners or I'm unable to contact owners and/ or cannot locate any mortgage liens and the property has been vacant for years, what do I need to do?  Are there forms that could be filled out and ads placed in the local paper?  I really would appreciate the benefit of your experience.  Thank you for your help.

Hi Lee, 

Thank you! 

 I am still in the beginning stages but, eager to learn.  When would you be available for a call?  

Best Regards,

Lisa

Hi Toxey,

I'm excited for your first flip!  I wish you great success.

Maybe in the not too distant future, I will be able to say I'm working on my first flip too.

Best Regards,

Lisa

Hi Jonna, thank you for the warm welcome!  Meeting some local flippers is a great idea, thanks for the advice!

Hi, my name is Lisa Johnson and I'm from Foley, AL.  I have always been interested in real estate and started off my career in mortgage lending.  Currently, I am a Career Coach but I feel drawn back to my first passion.  That is why I want to start flipping houses.  The idea of taking an old, run down home and turning it into someone's dream, while improving the neighborhood, really excites me.  I love every aspect of this process from finding the deal, to demo, to making it great, and finally selling, is what I feel I'm meant to do.  I am just getting started on this journey so any advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!
