What i wish was that local municipalities like the Town of Hempstead would publish a list of homes that had many violations or that were declared unlivable, so that buyers like me could go find the owners, buy them and fix them up.

So say you could get more like $750, $750 and $875 which is a nice boost over the current ones but still pretty reasonable based on the data I saw.Also for the non locals as an FYI the price for the published rents is not bad at all, unfortunately.

If you are interested direct message me and I will send you a link to an article published in the Texas Self Storage Association magazine about the turnaround we did on that storage facility.I wish you the best!

I just publish a blog with ten real estate tax tipshttps://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/9084/52811-ten-real-estate-tax-strategies

In the past few days, they have also published about 5k full attribute parcel line KML records to Google fusion tables (=interactive online mapping), cleaned up three county shapefiles, made custom relational databases from 1.65mm records, and so on.

The name of the publisher escapes me, like Barons or Broadstreet publishes annual stats by industry that valuations are based on.

Within ten years of going public in 1999, BlackRock became the world’s largest asset manager.Larry Fink, the company’s founder and CEO, prides himself on choosing his company’s leaders based on “merit and not pedigree,” according to a recent article published by the Financial Times.

I also have a question, I'm based in CT and found that probate is pretty hard thing to locate, I found a website that publishes "public notices to creditors of estates", after cross referencing with the tax assessment i decide wether or not its a home worth pursuing.  

I talked to a lawyer the other day about wholesaling, and I showed him a purchase and assignment contract, and he gave me the hammer.Here is our discussion:4735.01 Real estate broker definitionsAs used in this chapter:a)“Real Estate broker” includes any person, partnership, association, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, or corporation, foreign or domestic, who for another, whether pursuant to power of attorney or otherwise, and who for a fee, commission, or other valuable considerations, or with the intention, or in the expectation, or upon the promise of receiving or collecting a fee, commission, or other valuable considerations does any of the following:1)Sells, exchanges, purchases, rents, or leases, or negotiates the sale, exchange, purchase, rental, or leasing of any real estate;2)offers, attempts, or agrees to negotiate the sale, exchange, purchase, rental, or leasing of any real estate;3)lists, or offers, attempts, or agrees to list, of auctions, or offers, attempts, or agrees to auction, any real estate;4)Buys or offers to buy, sells or offers to sell, or otherwise deals in options on real estate;5)Operates, manages, or rents, or offers or attempts to operate, manage, or rent, other than as custodian, caretakers, or janitor, any building or portion of buildings to the public as tenants;6)Advertises or holds self out as engaged in the business of selling, exchanging, purchasing, renting, or leasing real estate;7)Directs or assists in the procuring of prospects or the negotiation of any transaction, other than mortgage financing, which does or is calculated to result in the sale, exchange, leasing, or renting of any real estate;8)Is engaged in the business of charging an advance fee or contracting for collection of a fee in connection with any contract whereby the broker undertakes primarily to promote the sale, exchange, purchase, rental, or leasing of real estate through its listing in a publication issued primarily for such purpose, or for referral of information concerning such real estate to brokers, or both, except that this division does not apply to a publisher of listings or compilations of sales of real estate by their owners;9)Collects rental information for purposes of referring prospective tenants to rental units or locations of such units and charges the prospective tenants a fee.Therefore, I believe that if you engage in the actions we discussed, it may make you and/or your business an unlicensed real estate broker.
