@Suzanne Chan I have experience with cloud based and DVR based camera systems.

Frankly, someone with that mindset would fail the screening.If someone does all that to get the appliances they better hope they leave no evidence and they beat the cloud backup, because they literally would be caught. 

If you're wanting to stick with the MLS, you might consider nearby St Cloud which can work and has a university, etc. 

now i've heard that once you have a signed contract with the seller to record it at your local court house which they say will put a cloud on the seller title which will show your interest in the property and will make it hard for this problem to happen, is this true and is this how all of you do it.4- and my last question, from my research on wholesaling what the investor is really do is turing their purchasing agreement into a option agreement, so my question is what strategies and tactics do you guys use in your contracts or conversations to by time to find a buyer for the property ((which i know your suppose to have a buyers list but sometimes your buyers may not be interested or are to busy with other projects and etc))i even read some past post were people said they wouldn't even go into a contract with the seller if they didn't already have a buyer lined up for it, now i know i'm a beginner but to me that can be smart but also very stupid, especially if you know your getting a great deal on the property (see all property and property conditions are different, for example you might not have buyer/investor in your list that likes rehabing burnout places and etc), so if your not risking much on the earnest money deposit i think who cares and just tie the property up and search for a buyer the reason i ask this question is because from my logical way of thinking, i think the seller of the property would think if you were interested in their property and their price and you have cash, why don't you just straight out buy their property a.s.a.p instead of waiting at some later date, so what are some ways to explain your late closing date to them so you can hold up a closing before your contract expires to find a buyeri hope i'm not asking for to much info, i will appreciate any response. thank you

No clouds on the title.

I consider my 20's as this dark cloud of mere existence.

When there is cloud on title (lien, encumbrance etc.) and money owed, how exactly does a quick claim deed clear title and remove these defects?

Your accounting software should be able to give you all that info. and if you want to keep track of the cash you spend, start an account that is named Cash and just put in the totals you put into the " cash" account and all your daily expenses. i know Quicken will keep track of your net worth and have it displayed at the bottom of the page, they even have a Budget tacker as part of their software and i believe the newer ones can be used on mobile phones and connect to your desk top via cloud.

It should NOT  be used to see if title is clouded or not, as things frequently are discovered when they go to work up a real preliminary title report.Title reports are freaking AMAZING, and it's not clear to me why they aren't used by law enforcement. 

Plus some do not even get back to you, hence I figured i'd bypass them, or at least attempt to do so... unless of course I find a good broker to work with who means business... and understands spectrum of the investor vs simply focusing on commission side of things so much that it clouds the judgement of the broker.That's the challenge i am facing here.. of course.. it may also sound like an excuse not to invest into commercial real estate... however.. the reality of it all is..
