It is something that needs to be a priority, and just like a high percentage of people that have different jobs (chef, doctor, police officer, nurse, etc.) they do not put investing as a priority. 

The mortgages were not paid and went into foreclosure, resulting in losses of over $3 million since the lenders were only able to recover a fraction of the outstanding mortgage balances when they sold the properties after foreclosure.This prosecution was brought by the Mortgage Fraud Task Force, made up of investigators from the Federal Bureau of Investigation; the United States Secret Service; the United States Postal Inspection Service; the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General; and the Lansing Police Department.

Those other bits are just gravy.The net commission in my pocket on the sample sale was as follows (in order of descending value):eXp - $1,510 (100%)VHB: - $1,400 (93%)Bean Group: $1,351 (89%)KW: $1,316 (87%)C21: $1,288 (85%)Better Homes: $1,130 (75%)So as much as I dismissed eXp after two ham-handed pitches that focused on "riches through recruiting", an analysis of the numbers made eXp the best decision for me.I hope that helps. 

I'm not trying to be the forum police here but it's annoying to see somebody consistently offering bad advice on posts.

David Krulac:I have provided computer forensic services on 4 child pornography cases - back earlier in my carrier before the police services had developed in-house competency.

I was an appraiser in the county which helped but I really dug deep and spoke with landlords, property managers, brokers and most important Police Officers to determine the better areas of the city to invest and it worked.

You could also try the local coroner’s office or non-emergency police number to see if any deaths were reported?

@Craig DieterichI police Whitehaven (38116) and Westwood (38109)If you get any deals in the area, hit me up and I’ll be able to give you some insight.

Can I get the police involved?

We could also tie our security cameras into the police system as part of a local program here in Chicago.We also paid "house sitters" to keep the squatters out!!
