I come from a mother who practices as a CA Realtor as well as a father who is a General Contractor.

Place ads on boards at Nursing & Retirement Homes: Frequently residents need to sell a house. 56.

The house I’m looking at has been vacant for the most part for 3 yrs (seller’s father went to nursing home and she just checks in on the house every month or so).

Looking for motivated sellers (tired and want to move) yields some too.Have one right now, mother passed and son doesn't want it.

Omg, I think I just sounded like my mother.

The mobile was still in the name of the mother of the guy who lost the property to the bank (4 degrees of separation; mom, son, bank, guy) and by the way, the mother was deceased (seemingly impossible situation).Anyway, long story short, the WA State DOT accepted this 1 page form from me and the guy and I now have the title, have moved the home to another property (and have it rented for $1,100/month by the way)!

He had an extremely good paying job, and I know his mother, and often when I would call him about an unpaid water bill she would bring the money by my house in cash.

I am a nurse by profession and I do not have any real estate experience at all.
