Now, I just get the basics off the GIS and if I get a call back, I screen the seller then do research.

A lot of investors who are marketing use their VA to screen the callers. 

Below is a screen shot of one of our properties.

I'm looking for one for my upcoming fix and flip projects and will be frequenting the local Home Depot there soon to inquire for business cards and do my own screening, but wanted to check in with the community first.

I've watched the videos in his introductory Performing Notes Course and all sounds great.As far as I understand it, if I do a good job of screening notes and make sure there is enough equity to protect my investment and the first mortgage is current….it's unlikely I'd end up loosing all my money.

.-  Initial investment takes 4-8 hours including screening a tape submitting the offer, wiring funds, verifying collateral etc.  

Here's an easy way to get around the Application fee: Have the screening company charge it directly.

Screen the Agent2. 

Wells had me writing letters for every little thing and wanted everything short of a blood test!

Assumes decent area with good tenant screening.
