There are a lot of things to do such as lock financial accounts, police report, look into insurance coverage (embezzlement insurance is an extra fee and is not always included), in the case of my wife's board they brought down the web presence for 2 days, changing of passwords, etc. 

Do research on different markets and then pick one that has strong fundamentals-job growth, population growth, diverse employment.

Do others here think it has value, even when a buyer/buyer's agent can track a property's full history pretty easily on the web?
