Hi @Kristen GoldensteinI've only been on here a couple weeks, but I've found going back and listening to the archive BP podcast is a great way to learn.

Latest is seller claims he settled the judgment lien, but can't find proof (he's been working with court archives etc).Question: To get clean title can the seller be asked so sign an affidavit stating he settled the judgement lien?

He has about 30 more of these archived that I'm slowing going through. 

Even if I did get an accepted contract, creating, sending and archiving all of these offers, as well as fielding calls from torked off agents, just would not be worth it. 

More to motivate you, but these game plan threads appear pretty often then vanish into the BP archives never to be updated.

Their S-11 has a lot of good information about how they analyze the SFR market and why they think it's a solid long-term strategy:https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1687229/00...My guess is they went public just to get some more capital.
