I am trying to find cash buyers using our county's online record search but am not sure what I am looking for.

It cost the title company money to pull a full title (they can do a prelim search and look some stuff up if its online) so they usually want to make sure you have somebody who can close so they dont get stuck with a bill for a property that will never close.

They also have some online education available.

Ira Smith I assume he checked the Broward property appraiser's site for a different mailing address, as they have the same doc.s online that we do.

I have all of these sites up when searching for 1-Local Realty MLS (local vs national also has cheaper deals) 2-Crime Reports (at my price point, i want ot make sure you're only choosing "safe" neighborhoods and most municipalities have some sort of online presence with 30-60 days of crime reports) 3-Rentometer (this is a pretty accurate rent aggregator to tell you the low/medium/high rents for that address 4- Craigslist to see what type of rental activity is listed there.4) While you're there, meet up with some turnkey managers and property managers.

This is an online search tool that lets you search for various kinds of jobs (not actual job openings) and see what's required, involved, and earning potential.

Aaron Yates, if you're set on allowing it, by all means, it might work out, if it doesn't it will be a learning experience, in fact, I bet it will be a learning experience in any case.

I plan to fix it up while living in it, rent the other units/basement and flip it after a year or two or hold it as a rental.Also, I am game for any networking or meetup opportunities around Portland or online, if you are experienced or not I am always interested in grabbing coffee or a beer.

Was it a yard sign, online etc.??

In 2-3 years you won't miss the 5k check you never got, but I would venture to bet you'd be happy to sell that house.
