If your local municipality has an online court records, go to their website and look up both criminal and civil histories.

The online tools are a good way to get a ballpark number and can sometimes be close to accurate, but a PM is able to tell you a more accurate amount.

Account Closed You can do automated lead generation in several ways, depending on whether you're looking for seller leads, buyer leads or private lender leads.Seller Leads: (1) Lead Swiper (online lead search with dozens of targeted searches), (2) Instant Leads -- direct access to listed properties nationwide with a click (3) OfferBot, automated offer making software (I use this every day) (4) Direct Mail Connect (upload your own list or use lists out of Freedomsoft) -- my team manages a ton of direct mail in my real estate business using this, (5) SMS lead generation (I use this every day)...and that's just scratching the surface.Buyer Leads: (1) Nationwide Cash Buyer database (millions of buyer records at the click of a mouse) -- including buyer name, address and all property addresses they've bought including closing dates and prices paid

Its not all fun and games like at the meet and greet events.

I’ve been researching a lot about the basics, but I know there’s so much more to learn, especially from those who’ve been in the game for a while.I’d love to hear from experienced wholesalers about their journeys and any advice you have for a complete beginner like me!

It would be nice if you gave them more than that, because it takes a lot of effort to move a business (online marketing, business cards, etc.).

The counties themselves take 2-4 weeks to record a document online.
