The assignment would be the preferred method because you're never going on record as the owner.

Commercial properties also may be appraised using this method or by using the income or cost approach.

i do the ron legrand method.

"action" doesn't mean flying off the handle, personally guaranteeing loans and "going for it" either.be methodical.

I'm curious what is it about the EHT investing method that gives you reason to pause?

Depending on what method you will use for purchasing, I would actually line up financing sources before I even thought about putting an offer on a property.

Now they actually didn't make most of their money until the market picked back up in the early 90's, but they positioned themselves in the late 80's and when the cycle pulled out they rose to the top.Down cycles destroy most investors, but the ones that adapt and learn to take advantage of the cycle become multi-millionaires.

I think this whole snowball method really starts with this baby step right here.

I am now trying to just buy a house for myself using this method(pre-foreclosure).My problem is I can't find the phone of these people who's house is on foreclosure so that I can call and make an offer.What should I do?

One method I've read about is finding someone who is defaulting on their mortgage and sending them a letter offering to help.
