I would recommend to go to the local investor meetings in your area as a means of physically networking and possibly finding a mentor.

And what custodial companies have you used?

Not a fan of investments that are not a physical asset.

The physical property just has to appropriately cater to a tenant for a week or so, and repeat business/word of mouth marketing is all about how well kept your property is and how responsive you are to those who inquire about it.

The problem is the owner didn't physically reside on the property.

If you don't have some way to automate the system (or have someone to do it for you), you need to be physically available to make it happen. 

Physically it can be done, but it would neither be safe nor to code.

I haven’t physically walked through the house but i know from talking to real estate company there will need to be repairs in the vacancy apartment.

When you say "card or poster", do you mean like a physical mail out or would email be ok?

-Veripro both services and owns the note since 2017.know veripro is eager to settle 2nd lien mortgages but they probably look at a first lien mortgage differently since theres a higher chance of payback since the home has value. wanted to know what veripro is looking for from this 1st lien situation.secondly. homeowner stopped paying in 2013 and home has been vacant for years. no lis pendens or notice of default has been filed. property hasn't been preserved or winterized either which is odd. know only the note holder can file the foreclosure. seems veripro isn't in the business of owning real estate physical property though, only the debt tied to the property (don't offer deed in lieu). if veripro can't settle instead of foreclosing, they would just resell to the next debt collector. going to look into angles to see if I could have the debt wiped, quiet title might be an option. might hold out until 2019 for the 6 year ny statute of limitations but would have to see when the debt was accelerated.any thoughts?
