Should the property go through the initial round of bidding unsold, however, all investors and homeowners looking for a second home can then participate in the process.

Otherwise, please consider uploading a personal profile photo so we can better recognize you as you navigate and participate here.Welcome!

I have been reading and following the forum section for several weeks and decided it was time to introduce myself and start participating.

Read a lot and participate on as many forums as you can.

Another important factor is what bank services the loan(some require submittals through Equator) who owns the loans, is it Freddie, Fannie, FHA, does the investor participate in HAFA, etc.

When I typed your initial and last name, I was given some threads where you posted, and from there the point Joshua Dorkin mentioned comes into play; beneath the user's avatar icon there is a link showing a number and the word "posts" - if you click that you see all the threads where that user participated.

Good luck and I hope to see you participating on the site.
