I look for a CCIMSee http://www.ccim.com/about-ccim/what-ccimThey are better educated than a Jesuit Priest (joke)Seriously, that desigination is about PhD Commercial.

Anyway, the next day I went to pull up the listing to show the pictures of the home to my girls and I saw that it was listed to the public as a short sale, for our agreed upon price.

I don't operate in that market; so, I can't tell you for sure.Right now Memphis is undergoing public school reforms where many of the municipalities are building their own school systems.

It is now public record.Kentucky, where I am is at least a 6 month state - others are different, GA and TN are VERY fast, then there are bank back logs, sheriff backlogs, etc.So anytime between the time that I was alerted via public record - when the LP was filed - and the date of sale, I can take the deed, make up the back payments, negotiate a short sale, list the house for sale, rent it out and collect rents, etc, etc.

. , welcome, this is the best place for investing education.

i've always been interested in real estate and whenthe Steve Martel group came to town to talk about investing in u.s. real estate I realized that it was important to get education first before investing.

They're both education oriented as opposed to a sales pitch like many of them.

What that school failed to educate us on was that their "guest speakers" were not the only options available to us.  

In most states, this can be done through the use of attorneys and statutory representatives, so that members are not revealed in the public record.
