The risk that I reasonably perceive from that based on 90 years of data is less than the risk I perceive from the lower returns in bonds.

If you pulled up this data on her and the data is on someone else and not her, she needs to CALL THEM and straighten it out because it's going to follow her for the rest of her life.Why would she, right out of the blue, have a list of previous addresses, and landlord numbers all ready and waiting for you if she was so shocked to find out there is someone else out there with her name having bad reports. 

It's definitely an invaluable resourceI would urge you to listen to all the podcasts - I know it's a big time commitment, but you will get so much out of it, even (especially?)

THAT would be invaluable to me.

@Joe Holly  your tenant base in the B - C and D  are mostly money order folks and cash.REason:1. bounced to many checks and they are in a federal data base and will never be able to open a checking account under that SSN again2. foreigners  Hispanics don't trust banks and just use cash.The Aussie clients I had were astounded that renters could be in such a place as their system is far more advanced than us... no checks in AU  everything is electronic.

Hi all,Does anyone know if any jurisdictions publish data on their tax lien sales (face values, winning bids, etc.)?  

You can use the price they bought it for as a data-point, but it's really secondary to the what data you can find in recent, comparable sales.Hope that helps!

Real Estate Markets in June 2015Summer is officially here, and just like the heat waves sweeping through much of the country, the real estate market shows no sign of cooling off any time soon, according to a preliminary analysis of June data for realtor.com®.Based on data for the first three weeks of June, the median list price increased to $233,000, up 7% year over year and 2% over May.

I concentrate mostly on major cities because it is easier to get demographic data and rental statistics about these places. 

For Non-Disclosure states, like Texas, it doesn't necessarily always show what a property last sold for, but if you go to the "Comparables & Nearby Listings" tab, they usually are pretty good about having some comps...at least in Texas...not sure about other states...and in some counties you need to click the "Both" for the Data Set bar, if the default selection of "Public Records" isnt' really bringing up anything.
