That said, I have had several happy endings of young couples I counseled to buy a home and, good news, they did It!

It's a fairly large home in a good school district so we can screen heavily.We developed a requirement and qualifications document that goes to everyone who receives an application.

He has a construction/flipping background, is very thorough without being alarmist, and makes a nice report with photos documenting his findings.  

How long have the tenants been there, and can the seller document the payment history?

Now that it would be a short sale, you'd have to get the auction postponed, which would take presenting some specific documentation to the judge at a hearing.  

It's a forum that has tons of news regarding new construction and development in town.

What contracts and disclosure documents do you use for sub2 and lease option?

I purchased a property for 137k with a 26k rehab budget and will list for 220k The great news is that based on the circumstances of the property I was able to make 28k in the buy!

You would need to do a walk through as the old tenants move out and document the property condition...

I don't know how to access your specific county's online system, however this is what I suggest you do to get started:1) Unless involving a guardianship for a minor, probate cases of Decedent's estates are public information. 2) Ask to see the Registry of Actions or similarly title list of new cases3) Start with a single case, typically the most recent filing.4) Request to pull the actual file to review5) Review the folder and note the documents and the order in which they are inserted6) Don't even think of separating or removing documents. 7) Determine what data you need, including Decedent's name, case #, PR name and contact info, etc.8) Most researchers capture the data then scrub later.9) If this is too much work, either pay someone else, find a commercial list provider or work another niche.
