Bill, I am in web development and have "decent" credit, though I haven't checked in a while.

Why do I see 1000's of posts about direct-mail/outbound maketing but relatively few about inbound/web marketing?  

It has to be in the area where potential renters want to live.Now, you mentioned unclean titles and I happened to stumble upon this web site that seems to offer tax foreclosures:https://voarllc.com/property/1943/Is this something to consider or stay away?

I'd probably slot that expense with office/trade equipment.

What are the best web sites to pull information from about a given area?

Call the university housing office and ask what options the students have and how many total units there are available for students.It would probably help to lookup a few owners of other properties like that in the same building on the county web site.

"The Property" is 8 individual parcels of land, one parcecl with a cabin within a community that when asked (emailed president) question regarding HOA responded with, "Byllaws posted on web site regarding obligation for road assessments only.

But I'm wondering if newer web sites/apps likes postlets or zumper, etc. will reach a broader audience. 

Another Sac web site you can access is www.erosi.saccounty.netIf you have the the decedent's full name it will give you the "party type" "document title" "book" and "page".

Take the addresses they give you and go to the Cook County assessors office web site.
