I couldn't put in words how happy I was and still am with the way Wells Fargo and Linda Wong and Renee Mickelson helped every step of the way.

That's like me giving you a course on how to be a successful president.

It was with the encouragement of Cody Cox, our NWREIA President, I started the satellite group in Eugene, OR in September of 2012.Please email me and I can set up an introduction for you, as I know he has been networking in Medford to someday start a REIA [email protected]

Hello, my name is Renee and I am preparing retire at the end of this year.

My suggestion below are not to be construed as legal advice, only general suggestions based upon my own experiences buying probate properties over the past 10 years.Regardless of the agreement you use, or the level of authority of the administrator, to transfer title of a probate real estate property in California REQUIRES the approval of the presiding judge and an appropriate court order.

Renee Stewart,DO you mind letting us know what local CRM you already paid & currently using? 

Call the club president and several vendors tell them you are thinking of coming to the meeting ask them their experience with the meetings.

Get an attorney See your local REIA  http://www.biggerpockets.com/rei/real-estate-clubs...Ask their president - organizer.It aint easy to find a good attorney that knows seller financing in the Dodd Frank environment.I hope that assists you.
