You'd have to interview them to find out if they either invest themselves or specialize in that area.If you want to contact me off line or add on to to your post here say a little bit more about what specifically you are looking for, I could probably make a recommendation.

If you do the flat fee you may find a company that is just willing to put anyone in, collect their 1st months rent, and deal with an eviction 3 months down the road only to to start the process shortly there after.

Just want to to get it right.When I locate a property of interest just listed as "NED RECORDED:" on a local government foreclosure list, what is my first best move?   

Happy Holidays.My team and I are compiling a list of websites and data sources that we can turn to to determine whether a particular market / MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area) is worth investing in. 

You need to to fly out and see your properties, sit with their maintenance team and find out how and why they fix things the way they do.Also you need to trust but VERIFY.

You will be required to to sign an "identity of interest" statement that looks like this:"I hereby certify to the Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) and Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, that I/We do not have anidentity-of-interest with the seller of the property.

(Besides the fact I'm probably talking with some unqualified contractor)I was able to to the estimation myself and get the same numbers as they did the same day.

I have run into bats in the attic, cabinets on back order, contractors who are not qualified to to the job.  

So, I don't have to be there toe to toe with the inspector.Lastly, yes it's just like buying property locally but I need to see and approve what my money is buying before saying yes to the deal.

Now they are trying to inflate values to bring in revenue to to get their books to a neutral or even positive position.
