There is something called CCAP in Milwaukee where with the tenants name and DOB we can look up and civil/criminal court cases.

On crime... one positive trend is that APD, in partnership with the courts, has lowered the previously skyrocketing murder rate.

We are now suing them in TX small claims court as the security deposit was not enough to cover the 2 - 3 months rent after they trashed the house. 

The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), which requires businesses to report Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) to combat financial crimes, is now facing uncertainty due to a recent federal court ruling:What Happened?

With actual cash, you just transfer it. yes, but you can still bid with lender approval - without appraisal contingency - you send in deal (app), it gets approved by lender its functionally the same as cash (except in true lightning speed situations where there is a quick auction with little time to prep but thats generally pretty rare I'd think)Right, but that's not cash or functionally the same as cash because the lender can change the terms at the last minute, as often happens with less experienced hard money lenders.

Our online court records in CT are now automatically dropping tenants' evictions fro the record after 3 yrs, or even less. 

Most landlords in Lawrence township now take evictions through Superior court, although that has added costs and is a slower process.  

Eventually, you will be sued and end up in court.

If you have evidence of the damage, it is unlikely the tenant will spend the time and money to take you to court.

My state has a good court website where I can better do my own background checks for free so that isn't an issue.
