This will allow me to know if there is any fraudulent activity.I require renters to send me a copy of their drivers license and they pay a $300 security deposit.I still mow the grass myself even though house is an hour away because I like to check on things but I could easily outsource this and rarely have to visit property.Homeaway takes the payments, maintains a calendar and website with pictures and details of the property.I wanted to offset the ownership of a lake house, then very quickly it started paying for itself.

Next day turn around would be pretty quick for a conventional loan in my experience.

For instance, if I think the house is worth $80k and the mortgage being foreclosed on was taken out 2 years ago for $100k I just stop my analysis there because there is no equity and the lender will buy it back for more than it's worth. 95% of the foreclosed properties in my area still fall into that category so I can quickly narrow down the list.From there I do a physical drive-by.

Is there a quick and cheap way to do this? 

It's gonna cost a couple grand for the survey so you better make sure it's a good deal and it's going to sell quickly otherwise you're out that two grand and that is why I didn't put it up and ultimately wasn't able to sell the acreage.
