Birds of a feather flock together!

Remember, no system is perfect, so avoid the temptation of constantly chasing after the next shiny object.

Chasing foreclosures is a big concern in California and some other states.

If a bird flies through one of the sets, the alarm does not go off.So you have two of these boxes, which can be set up to 300 feet apart. 

PS is revolutionary because of how it has simplified access to all of the various data points investors need to make a decision and because of this its extremely popular.You do not want to be using a popular lead source to increase deals because everyones chasing the same deals.And nothing will change with there data because there business model forces them to have to buy and license the data they get which means waiting for the county/databroker to send it to them which guarantees anyone using PS data will be behind the counties, only getting a fraction of the leads and getting those late leads the same time as everyone else.How do you get access to the leads first.

@Chase Hoover that is awesome, congratulations.I would love to learn more about the deal and lessons you learned along the way.

Go where the population is growing 5-10% per year (even though it is a small denominator) over chasing year 1 cash flow in a stagnant/declining market.

Big Banks like Wells Fargo, BOA, Citi, US Bank, and Chase utilize lending programs aimed to service large swaths of depositors.

No system is perfect, so don't waste time chasing after the next shiny object.
