@Joanna Pias Are you referring to an auction that actually takes place at the property or a property that is listed through one of the auction websites?

@Bob Malecki thanks for the reference.

Hi Bigger pocketsI've called two property management companies to verify references listed on an application, however they won't release ANY information to third parties. 

From the little info on their website it looks like they are flippers but maybe also do some wholesaling.

It is a single family home that I lovingly refer to as "The Cat Pee House" - as it turns out the cat pee was just the beginning of what was causing apotpourri of foul smells. 

By name, the product I was referring to seems similar & is what got me interested.

Here are my best three bullets worth of advice:Get and review client references - Talk to the last couple of investors they sold a deal.

Get actual taxes off tax accessors website, get rent toll from agent or owner, get insurance quote from agent, get mechanicals and interior condition from agent or owner (confirmed with inspection later).  

Is this what you were referring to?

So I thought I would take this time to reflect on all that has happened since then.Before BP – I worked a 50+ hour a week corporate job and had 3 properties with plans to aggressively pay them off and in 15-20 years be able to quit my job and live off rent incomeAfter BP – I quit my job within 9 months of drinking the BP Kool-Aid and now have 30+ properties and 90+ units and I started my own real estate brokerage and website business and networking conference for investors.It has been a wild ride!
