The best tool in there is their direct link to social media.More costly but worth it:We have access to a service called tracers that, for .50 per pull, gets us some of the most up to date info on anyone out there.We also employ a couple of private eyes that are somewhat entrepreneurial that will not only locate the owner but set up the appt for between 500-1000 per closed transaction.These are a few of the tools we use to locate our sellers...
