@James JohnsonBP is full of useful resources such as forums and blogs.

Back to that technology thing again, I read a financial article maybe a year ago or so that banks were switching to a new verification system for checks.

Various news articles indicated that these companies had been involved in alleged real estate fraud.2.A U.S. bank reported that a real estate investment company located in the eastern part of the United States made multiple cash deposits within a five-week period in amounts that totaled almost one million dollars.

Make sure to listen to all the BP podcasts, read the articles on the main blog and be active in these forums to learn a ton very quickly about any topic in real estate you want to know more about.This is also a great place to meet people that can be assets to your business.

Continue to read the forums, blogs, and listen to the podcasts.

I am coming across conflicting articles (http://speakingofrealestate.blogs.realtor.org/2011/09/07/fraud-are-your-clients-using-reverse-staging/) and past posts; some adamantly say it is illegal, some say they are submitting a contract in an LLC or Trust and then assigning the next day (wholesaling the short) and that this is legal.Any insight is much appreciated, from either side, backed up with reasoning.
