This is an email I received from my local attorney who has done numerous closings for me on real estate transactions.

You don't have to wait until after Jan 31st.)Lastly, numerous attorneys have formed the opinion that these federal eviction moratoriums (like the CDC order) don't even apply in California. 

@Nick Giarratano Have you considered looking into the Brrrr method and sourcing hard and/or private money for the purchase?

This is effectively the BRRRR method.

This alternative to the traditional brrrr method crossed my mind.

Find something strong.Educate and explore the numerous ways to invest in real estate.

Anyone who thinks otherwise should search "Clayton Morris".Syndications have been mentioned numerous times and can produce solid returns.One that I have not seen mentioned (maybe I missed it) is NNN properties. 

If you're not compliant, there are ways to become compliant (including a streamlined method).

What is the preferred method for coming up with rental comps?

A lot of people may disagree with me, and that's fine, we all have our methods, but I also come from a sales background with a lot of cold calling and cold emailing, so I've had a lot of practice at getting rejected and disarming prospects that want anything but to talk to you.As far as ways to get contact information, I use Propstream, which is great for getting property and owner information, comps, distressed situations, etc. and then you can skip trace them within Propstream to get the contact information.
