I use video to explain the program.

Loan originaters must be starving there..... was that a fannie mae or freddie mac... or another program?

I am still a ways away from this but want to get things started so when I do "go public" I have a sound business plan.

Its nice that your wife is going along with the program ;o) Cute suggestion for @JMartin Love would be a bonus right!

It is easier to get information from your public servants when you are in town.

In brokering secondary loans we would have different programs with different wholesalers and even in basic programs their wishes could be different.

Hey BPers, I'm piggy-backing off of a thread I started in the Real Estate Marketing Forum: http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/87/topics/113063-pre-foreclosure-foreclosure-leads-in-a-judicial-foreclosure-stateA quick summary for those not interested in reading that thread, foreclosure processes in judicial states are handled within the court system and as a result there are no public notices required like in non-judicial foreclosure states.

The "free" option but the one that will take the most time is by accessing the public records either at the court house or online through their database portal.Another option is to pay around a $100 for a title search.

Are there any loan programs similar to homepath/fha etc. that are available?

You can download the GA tenant guide free here as a .pdfhttp://www.dca.ga.gov/housing/HousingDevelopment/programs/LandlordTenantHandbook.aspThe way it generally works is you give them a 3 day notice to vacate and rent Is due.
