Re read my original post...I said ON THAT TRADELINE, not that it would not appear on the public records section.We may be splitting hairs here but, i felt a further comment was warranted.

But having a single closing agent who is local to the area, knowledgeable, and can work with different lenders has saved me a lot of gray hairs.  

Unfortunately most of the notes in this realm are leftovers from larger trades so they may have more hair on them.

I got the info from assesment department cost $50 and any mods I need after I pay he helps me with, in the same list I have the property tax info, value of house, and outstanding tax info, lol I just answered my own question on finding seller leads, and that is one part of it people with over due taxes are motivated sellers, very nice...Lee L. i really would Try the door knocking but I fractured my foot so that's going to have to wait, but as soon as Im good I'm on that, and I really like my man hair...

I'm okay with that outcome.Would it have been better for me to go in all hair brained and without enough capital to responsibly cover my rear end if something went wrong?

Some damage needs to be repaired right away, other damage can wait until move-out.Specific to unauthorized pets... look under the kitchen appliances for a build up of pet hair.

Soap scum, dirty appliances, crumbs in the cabinets, window sill crud, ceiling fan dust, hair under the baseboards etc etc. $275 sounds like a reasonable fee to charge for my area and I'm nowhere near the high rent district of LA.

Make sure a single hair can't be found in the bed, bath, etc...Have a nice guidebookHave a paper that asks for positive and negative feedback.Hope this helps :)

I know many of you will have their hair rising when you hear this strategy, but this is one of the options I am trying to see if it will work.My question is have any any of you gentlemen/ladies have done this before?

@Quantell Booker be careful:my hair stands up when I think about partnering up with a tenant, that has bad idea written all over it.
