@Michael Hopkins add my name to your gta list.Ted

Just heard of this group today from Bryan Field. I am new to real estate and starting my journey to set up and build a real estate portfolio that I can pass on to my children. I am still in the beginning/research phas...

Some common names you'll see thrown around a lot: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend you search for each of those apps online and see what they offer, how much they charge, etc.

A property search shows that property under another name since 2013.

Some investors own in their personal name so that might be hard to tell if it's primary homeowner vs. investor. 

Hi, good afternoon my name is Cesar i’m new to the biggerpocket forums, I’ve been reading the book rental property investing by Brandon Turner that’s how I found out about the forum.

that's a simple pitch - you say your name is Shane, you're a real estate investor, and you'd like to buy their property. 

Bank will want that loan in your name.

Many of these companies will provide information about the property, including the name of the owner, address, loan amount owed, and additional loans outstanding.

Most hard money lenders are going to require 10 -20% down payment and then require you fund bring 10 - 20% of the rehab budget depending on your experience flipping (in your name/LLC you own), property ARV, etc.
