Reality:  not so much.For lead generation BP has been my only source that has worked, but most of those leads only ever want to look at MFH, and I've learned the hard way MFH data is sucky beyond repair in the MLS.No closings. 

@Sean Trily The best source of leads are people who are already living in the park.

.- Attach a letter of intent with your offer- Keep sourcing for other deals and do not depend solely on this one.

In the past, I've found them to be good sources of information when studying and learning the market.

This is usually a 2-step process. 1. pull a list of people likely to want to sell their home. 2. append phones and email to that list where available.You can work with a list broker to walk you through and make recommendations for your target.Please note that "loan balance" is not public data and the only sources that do have it are credit score companies and there are a lot of legal restriction around selling the data.

Another option I'm considering is pulling the max amount from every source aside from 401k and seeing if I can get a family/friend loan of roughly ~$12k.

Hello, I'm looking to close on a property sourced from a wholesaler (numbers work and the wholesaler fee is reasonable).

Otherwise it is confusing and a source of conflict later when they think the tenant believes they have a “credit towards damage.”

@Andrew Lavier You will get the best, detailed answers by going directly to the source!

HMLs are good but they aren't always the best source of help fund deals.I hope this helps answer your questions.
