(verify this)A POF letter will tell sellers that you are able to close the deal for what you offer them. 

I'll verify via due diligence.

Of course most won't show or a simple case of non-payment and are adjudicated within a few minutesHowever, it is not uncommon for a contested case to be reset if the judge thinks extra time will be neededWhile we all know what the ultimate result will be, the judge might want to verify deeds and such independently of documents furnished by either party before rendering a decision.  

I would assume this to be the case to make sure everything is legit and without issue, but this is my first transaction and wanted to get information on how others handle the “closing” and verifying of information.Refinance.  

If neither have rental history they would need a co-signer, with one just need to verify they were authorized occupants. 

I have identified homes in lis pendens, but I need to verify that I can help the owners sell these homes, without  Having to go into short sale.I guess my question is can I approach owners with lis pendens to to try and have them sell their house? 

I think that's because my focus is Class A or Class B tenants (minimum 650 credit scores and verified income must be at least 3 times the rent) - easy tenants.  

I verify their income is sufficient to pay the bills.

Call the utility companies to verify and not take word of the owner/seller. 

If you really want me to, I can pull up my hud statements and verify, but I think that is a close enough estimate.
