Please if anyone have any advice on how to generate leads it would greatly appreciated.

Most counties have options to access the Tax Assessor, Recorder of Deeds and other sites for real estate records online.

This can lead to all kinds of problems including potential legal issues.

Plus, it's a total waste of time.All transfers are recorded at the county level, and many counties around the country have on-line sites where you can review transfers. 

My friends were amused when I wondered how I would deal with the loss of my Internet connection (which could be serious when doing online investing).

Today i will visit the County Clerks office to get leads.

I guess maybe this is a new twist created by BP and other online things.. take the names of prominent ( not that I am prominent ) but those maybe that other would know and just flat lie about doing deals with them and if I am doing deals with the scammer you should too.. ????

Yes, most of the JVs I've seen are where you fund 100% of the acquisition and work out cost, the experienced investor finds/vets/leads the deal and work out process, and then profits are split 50/50. 

I think even though the containers are ''industrial'' all those things will be necessary.The biggest thing is if there is a need or what lead you to believe there was a need for it?

Side note, as a listing agent I never wanted the buyers inspection report.....it could lead to possible non disclosure issues.
