@Michaela G.Please note, we did not request your social security number to begin with nor would we request sensitive information at pre-qualification stage.

They are too time sensitive and too many moving parts to not have somebody on the ground taking care of the day to day problems. 

@Carrie ReymentAgree with Shaunda that pre-foreclosures are great but there are a lot of caveats - it's tough with direct mail because it's very sensitive and calling / door-knocking is better but only if you know how to talk to these types of buyers.

If he was that sensitive to heat, he should not have rented my property. 

The misconception that cash elicits some discount in real estate is tenacious and unfounded in my market, and only true if the seller is desperate, the sale is time-sensitive (short sale), the property is not financeable or the appraised value is dubious.I've worked with multiple sellers particularly on the high end who don't care if it's cash or not, they just want their price.

The above valuation metric is also less sensitive to interest rates, in comparison to cap rates/price-rent.At the very minimum, need a comparison variable against which the relative valuation is assessed, not achievable if operate just in 'price' space.

Think "E*Trade with a different set of paperwork".More dynamic and/or time sensitive portfolios (rental property, a series of short-term notes, tax liens, etc.) will be more effectively handled by a Checkbook IRA LLC or Solo 401(k) plan.  

This can be anything from requesting a temporary restraining order to filing a lawsuit for illegal foreclosure.  

Real estate is too time-sensitive and interactive for that 3rd party model to be effective.You could look into a Roth held IRA LLC or if you qualify by being self-employed, a Solo 401(k) plan that has a Roth component.  

For more time-sensitive and interactive assets such as real estate, this is typically a more efficient model.Providers of both types of services are active here on BP.
