Maybe I'm confusing this with bonus depreciation.I also thought I read that I would need to purchase the vehicle before the flip was sold (recorded).One other question, I generally lease and write off my lease.

Alternatively, once you record the quitclaim deed you can evict the squatter and rent the property immediately. 

Some counties are easier than others, but I've learned to use an over abundance of caution on the front end as not all properties are recorded equally.What I generally ask clients to do for me by way of homework is to send me a handful of addresses (3 or so) per County of buildings you KNOW are the right type, just the sort you're looking for.

If you want to raise some $ and do joint ventures, track record and experience mean way more, but a degree adds, but doesn't subtract. 

Ever gone through public records and found out WHY this single mom with four kids and a good job keeps renting from you?

Some Judgement liens against the owner expire after 5-10 years, if they are not re-recorded. 

Specifically, how will the supply of money outstrip the demand, when we have record high unemployment and a pretty active mortgage forbearance program? 

Zillow now records calls from leads generated for rental properties.

@Cameron Weld if you go to the county clerk office or website, you can pull the title history yourself for free because its public record and look for any liens that have been filed against the property.

I also use Cozy for reasons mentioned above, plus I like that there is one place to keep the lease agreement, receipts and records for repairs, payment history etc.
