Although, the law says Tax Sales are conducted every 1st Tuesday of the Month, not every county conducts a sale on "EVERY TUES of EACH MONTH".

You can assign a pre-foreclosure as long as you are not conducting a short sale with the bank.The equity in the home is the FMV of the property – what is owed on the home – repairs.Assign the contract to the end buyer at the highest price you can get.

A business office where you have a virtual office and can rent conference space as and when it is needed normally has a smaller client base who can get to know you.

I have not conducted a background yet.

I take a lot of hrat about being from NC when I go to some of the default conferences.... so it is a little toungue in cheek!

I'd really like to chat with someone who has experience in conducting short sales.

For the past month or so we've just been taking in information, attending conferences and just really trying to see where we would like to start.

Now...mind you, I walked into this HUGE conference room, with about 500 chairs set up.

Matt and I own an investing club calendar in our area, we ran investing club subgroups, I've run conferences with the local experts speaking, I've spoken to investing clubs.

Matt,The banks and trustees need to know that you have the means to do what you want to do.what I mean by that, is if you have proof of funds, and time is short,i call the bank and trustee and fax that, with my tentative offer or plan,and if needed i conference in the homeowner on those calls.the bank's last desire is to get the property back, and I've stopped the sale at minutes before the end of the day just before the sale...get a letter for proof of funds, and know you have a deal,and stay aggressive...these lenders are so overwhelmed with 'investors' that don't appearor sound believable, that sometimes their only change of demeanor will come by showing them the money...stay focused, and don't quit...
