Have you asked the person who trained you for direction? 

I've done some with owner financing, I have taken personal loans, and I have paid cash for the property.

All expenses must be paid from retirement funds. ( You can't use any personal funds or credit cards to pay bills on the rental). 

I have personally seen this come to 30-50% of the value of the home.

So instead of driving around you can use pin to find the property and the person.  

FWIW there's locations here in CA where you can (in person) get fake DL, SS card, I9 cert, smog cert etc.

It almost seems to good to be true to be able to get the same returns as a Certificate of Deposit.https://finance.yahoo.com/personal-finance/best-high-yield-s...

But, personally I wouldn't start the renovation until I'd had done a background check on the person who lost the property, to see if they have other assets they could sell to redeem the property or relatives who might help them out. 

I am not one of those.I do personal communications with all the guests and they have my cell so they can call or text.

Please also feel free to bring an investment, personal financial dilemma, or strategy question, and I am happy to discuss it with you... for entertainment purposes only.
