Welcome,  you are in good hands here on BP its a great site with tons of info

There seems to be no way to search all evictions either current or past.I also don't want to search their site against my Listsource of 60k+ absentee owners.

As a matter of fact Bigger Pockets (the social media site you & I are currently on) happens to be one of the best social media sites in regards to driving traffic to your website.

I am new to this site and new to investing!

Wealth building is a risk game and educated risk is good risk.I have high cash flow and a large HELOC to rely on as a back up. 

The less prepared you are, the more you must rely on other people and hope they give you good advice.

This formula is used most frequently in a commercial property (5+ units) because often times the loan is a non-recourse loan ($1mm+) so the lender has to rely on the property to support itself since the lender can't look at the borrower as a qualifyer.However, if you are talking about SFR or a 1-4 unit property, you can obtain a conventional loan. 

Have a look at their web site, there is a meeting tmrw night.

This is a site that I have been following for a few years now, and I have finally decided to take action! 

Check out if the site have all the services to the boundary and that there are no easements or any under restrictions on the deed.
