Some people dont even reply to an ad without an address because they think its a scam.

My question is, how do determine if a home is a scam on Craigslist without having title work done?  

In my first year, I made an expensive mistake in getting locked into a legit-sounding advertising contract that was a complete scam.

They were basically just trying to scam you.

Todd Bowen has scammed many individuals out of their money.

That's just another scam out there for these turnkey scumbags

Not a big deal in the world of real estate scams, but annoying none the less.Fair warning.

NO SCAMS!

At any rate, given that Craigs List is highly junk now (multiple postings by same person, scams, and simply ads for houses that don't exist), I wanted to know if anyone has had any success with it.The OLF has a learning curve (like anything), and seems to need a lot of tweeks and updating.

I recently started a closed Facebook group to teach people in our REIA how to safely lend their own money on deals to others in our REIA to promote investing activity and I'm not worried about the law coming down on me for teaching this to others without a license or brokering it out for them if that's what they prefer.It's very difficult to get any help from law enforcement or other regulatory agencies even if you do collect money nationwide from people to scam them or to legitimately broker it, whether you have a license or not.
