Is it as simple as driving around and figuring it out?  

The borrower simple starts remaking payments at a given agreed upon date.

There's a standard syndication that goes out to sites like Zillow, Redfin etc that is included when it is listed in the MLS; hence why people can find properties from across the country. 

Quote from @Kelly Giarrocco: I bought a vacant property on Sherriff sale last year on the ********** site.1.

A simple conversation about market trends or investment strategies can open doors.Follow Up & Stay Consistent – Raising capital is all about trust, which takes time to build.

No kidding this is as simple as it gets.. just advertise that you accept shorter term leases and riase your price.. we have been doing it in Vegas for years..

Certainly nothing ground-breaking in terms of ideas here, however I'll be very hands on (and on site) during the process to make sure that every step of the way is executed to a high standard and very carefully.Once I've hopefully developed a successful track record and gained experience, my next goal would be to move on to commercial assets (think multi-family, industrial etc) so that I can leverage my existing investor network and real estate knowledge to raise 3rd party equity and take on bigger projects.

I cannot find any reviews on BP or other sites.

It also has enough sq. ft. to accommodate the additional unit without having to consider it an efficiency unit.But also agree, we'll just start simple with adding more living space / the duplex down, and keep things flexible for the future.
