Some are from here on BP, others are investors I've met over the years through this business and others, and some come from the NVREA network (I got linked in with them through some other investors years ago and my name has traveled in that circle through satisfied investors.)Now, once an investor has told me they're interested in the deal, the structure works like this: as a real estate agent, I keep any commission paid out by the seller on our purchase of the house.

I found a few on LinkedIn I think but none mentioned Phil's program.

I have spoken with him but If there is anyone on BP who can provide additional input about turnkey provider in Bridgeport and/or reference about Dawud and his company, it will be greatly appreciated.His Linkedin profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dawud-bey-009a8254His company page: http://investinbridgeport.com/what-we-do/

I also follow your feed and informative posts on LinkedIn.

Check out my linked in page for a write up on finding emerging markets.

A few ideas....check social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, etc); Google search the tenant’s name (I once found an ex-tenant I was trying to serve with papers who was listed on an online professional membership roster with her work info); reverse Google search the phone number; have someone else call the number and pretend to be a customer, vendor or whatever is appropriate depending on the type of business. 

It is possible and legal to honestly say that the owner is absent and you are renting the property until he or she returns.Though Adverse Possession law is not clear to the average person, nor to the average investor, the very website that you linked in a comment above, does provide an answer to your own challenges (except for your unnecessary claim that renting an abandoned property means pretending to own it).Sue you have linked to - http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/adve...Under the “Elements” paragraph of that link it is clear our laws recognize that “nonpermissive use by the adverse claimant that is actual, open and notorious, exclusive, hostile, and continuous for the statutory period” can “ripen into legal title”.  

I generally do a serious search on them (Facebook and Linkedin are biggies) and the truth is, I just trust my instinct.

I wish I could share this post on my FB or LinkedIn.
