I didn't formulate my question very well simply because I was on my phone at the time of posting and I rushed it.Again, thank you for the replies and I will consult my agent and attorney regarding the matter.Cheers!

Now that RealAuction has added it for counties I invest in, I can begin to use it to see what my competition has done in the past and can formulate a better bid strategy.It's kind of like having a peek at their playbook from past games.

I guess, my first guy on the ground a trustworthy Real estate agent that I met face to face, maybe comes recommended just cause the fact he knows the area and you really had to trust the guy since you don't know much, then also I have done in the past just go around the area, se what kind of people hang at the coffee shops etcs, you cant judge a book by its cover but you can formulate a opinion and compared with data you may find on the crimerate monitor and talking with the agent.

@jeff mcnutt...I own 4 MH parks (and was featured in podcast #195 on the subject), this doesn't make me an expert, but I have formulated a couple of opinions on the subject :-).  

Hello @Michael Webster Welcome to BP and congratulations on formulating a question to post.

I'm trying to formulate a plan of how to go about it, and currently my plan is to try and buy two single family properties every six months.

@Joe Burns -- your ideas are very well formulated and it sounds like you're getting well-prepared.  

Greg,I'm not afraid to negotiate and I'm starting to formulate a plan around $55-60K for the offer, depending on how the walk-through an electrical work looks.  

I have been trying to figure out how to formulate an initial fair offer for this property.

I am ready to formulate a 5, 10 and 20 year plan.
