They should have taken action to protect their stuff.

Welcome Levi, and congratulations for taking action.

Especially if you have limited resources being the "boots on the ground" for someone that is out of town but interested in the market could be a great way to get started.Find the deals and help get it taken down and get a small piece of the action in return.

(no offense REA folks) Investors are often 'harmed' by the actions of an appraiser.

@Clay Smith I have been at the point you were at 5yrs ago for the past 7 months. i'm ready to take action and would like to network. it's inspiring to hear others post on this forum.

So I'm basically putting the ball in my own hands and holding all responsibility for my own actions.

A quiet title action takes 4-6 months, and around $2,000 unless there a crazy number of lien/judgment/mortgage holders.

Therefore I will be using HML or equity partners, and time being sensitive in these deals, I don't think I have the opportunity to properly screen new equity partners.So, I'm about to move forward, but before I go calling every HML on the west coast, does anyone have any experience in pre-negotiating funding without disclosing actual property details to make sure a lender is the right fit?

(3) An action under this section may be brought at any time during the tenancy or within two years after its termination.

:)I'm not a good person to judge this as I like a lot of action when I'm selling.
