Quote from @Joe S.: Have you ever noticed that people can send you a picture of themselves and then when you see them in person you think they look a way different?

I've met various scopes from vesting title to 150+ year land-patent research for the oil and gas/energy industry, as well as power and pipeline ROW (right of way).However, I've started researching some foreclosure title for myself and to help some flipper friends in return for investing advice.

And, this involves everything you care about:  stocks, real-estate, business dev, commodities (oil, precious metals, minerals, etc), estate planning, asset protection.  

That shaves 4-6 weeks off the process. 

Oil Gas  and leaseholds. 4.

The other things I invite you to do is, before you take advice on this or any forum...or from a guru...is to look up their background and see if they really know their stuff or if they simply want to sell snake oil.

We have eliminated oil heat and electric baseboard heat because of their high cost of operation. 

Make sure that wasn't the site where all the construction workers changed their oil, or it is not the trash site for the neighborhood, make sure it is not in the flood zone, make sure the lot size meets the building/plat regulations, check for utility access, if they have lawsuits check for judgements and liens, and IRS liens.#7 Go kill it and make millions, maybe you found a gem.

Oil & Gas, Banking, Insurance, Tech, Medical, Airline, Distribution and more.

When you make a lot, lot more you can go after minerals, oil, etc.
