Since I decided to take action with wholesaling, I mailed out my first yellow letters during the first week of march.

I don't imagine any eviction notices would be published in the local press, mainly because of space and manpower issues (not to mention, most newspapers keep far away from landlord-tenant disputes).However, the info itself should be public information that is readily available, regardless of state, because it is a legal action and can be found in court records.

Too me that trade off isn't worth it.  

I'm still trying to better understand the trade offs between investing in Everett vs.

You only need a credit score of a 600 to get qualified for an FHA mortgage with no minimum trade lines.

This makes the similar sized duplex units look like a steal.One big problem is that the current owners of the old houses can't find a replacement home.My idea is to let them trade up into a duplex in their same neighborhood.  

I've learned more about REI & how to take action through BP & free podcasts on iTunes!!

What do I know, I am only a CPA by trade ;-)I do know of investors that continue to get FHA loans on properties they buy as rentals and they tell the lender they will live there for the year and never do. 

Most people who like these markets have different objectives and accept the trade off of the lower return for the possibility of a more stable tenant.

A deficiency can be obtained through a judicial foreclosure process however,  The Mortgagee must pick one action path there to pursue which will affect the potential time.
