My assumption, is that that entailed finding a name in the obituaries, perhaps researching their name in whitepages.com (to find an address to cross-reference), and matching them up with a record for a property in the county property record search tool that I referenced earlier in this thread.Am I right?

No one knows what I'm referring to?

Insurance would be the best solution, but I can't imagine the title company wanting to sign up for this risk.

So, there will likely be at least minimal remediation required.I would factor in between $500-3000 for that as well, depending on the scope of the problem and the recommended solution.

If I can't I will try to refer him to someone who can.

I have a married couple in another house with scores just as bad but they have a track record of good rental references over the years.

I know some good subs if you decide to start investing in the canton akron market I can refer.

The most under served part of the real estate property management field is the smaller under 4 unit buildings and you can use this part of the market place to build a portfolio of references.

"As of December 31, 2011, approximately 7,800 customers used one or more of our on demand software solutions to help manage the operations of approximately 7.3 million rental housing units."

If you're not licensed, it's probably illegal for an agent to refer you any part of their commission (I believe that's the case for most/all states).
