For this reason, with "traditional" companies, like State Farm, it is vital that values of property are accurately reported and updated annually to reflect inflation and other increases in cost.

I do think it is vitally important to understand the variety of credit scores out there, what they mean and how they are arrived at.

We have kept track of dates/duties/pay etc. on a spreadsheet.

I have read some attorney blogs and questions concerning the Act and the exemption for attorneys is there but limited in that they must do the origination and underwriting and that staff may take care of adminstrative duties but not undertake these issues.

For me, I use dropbox to share files with my 2 partners and it has been vital in our operations.With my lenders we use picasa picture gallery to easily upload new pictures for them to look at on their own time.

I do not spend the money on title searches as the county has a legal duty to notify all parties involved--one of the beauties of tax deeds is having the county do your legal work for you.  :-)  Besides, doing title searches on the properties you are interested in some FL County auctions can run you quite a bit of money-with no guarantee that the property will even go up for sale on the day of the auction.
