In my "full time job" I am a Commercial Energy auditor.

I also wanted to note, if you are purchasing the duplex at a price that is significantly below the auditor's appraised value of the property, you can file a complaint and try to get the appraised value lowered.

Include a check for the exact amount, payable to the xXxX county auditor (here).

Probate and code enforcement can be found in county auditors office/ code violation department.

It has been my experience with IRS auditors that if you do more than 2 flips per year, they consider you a dealer.

From their I would go to the county auditor's website, get the name and mailing address of the owner and start with the handwriting yellow letters.

I have been listening to the real estate podcast for quite a some time, while working my W2 as a night auditor.

I think that was a little literary freedom calling auditors "PI"s.

I have internal and external auditors at my desk monthly.

I had been an accountant and auditor prior to that.
