@Richard Benjamin Wilhite, A great place to start would be the county appraiser records. 

@Jonathan Sanchez, I use pricelabs and it kept me above 90% occupancy in unincorporated Adams county. 

If anyone knows any good contractors in or around Camden County, I would really appreciate your help!

Quote from @Mitchell Coles: In Ohio, property liens are typically recorded at the county level, making the County Recorder's Office a valuable resource for property research.

It’s a fully renovated, modern-styled, 2-story townhouse with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a basement in Baltimore County, where I live.

I have sold a lot of property and I always call the county assessors to make sure they’re caught up with rezoning reassessing.

Attorney for HOA said it was pretty easy to find the HOA address and the county should have done more to hunt them down. 

We have long terms holds in Shasta and Tehama county.

Primarily desert washes, but also near a creek....So I would go knock on doors and ask neighbors when it has flooded and what they think about the area......maybe call the County water board and ask then what has happened there in the past.

Given that I'm not positioned to buy just yet, and simply running the numbers, is there a rule of thumb for estimating insurance costs that would make sense in Cook County?
