You can then direct the seller to go down to the title company or lawyers office and enter into the lease with option or lease purchase, getting their signatures notarized.3.

In the past, I have called the tax office and let them know that they sent it to me rather than the lender.  

Let me know if you're still pursuing this and I can connect you with the loan officer with whom I recently worked with on my last loan.

@Jordan WilliamsonWhat are your ratios per your loan officer?

Once you have identified the handful of heavy hitters, I would suggest volunteering in their office as much as you can.Even it it's just cleaning or answering phones - you will pick up some good tid-bits through osmosis.  

Hello Folks Heres the deal (no pun intended) i'm a realtor and every once a while a client walks into the office and is a tenant and their landlord has abandon the property. in this particular situation the landlord who left the property isn't the owner but his son the actual owner has passed away, so my client who walked in says shes has been having a hard time with the son who hasn't done much to up keep the property and has just been taking the rent till one day he decides to up and leave. so now shes looking for a new place to rent but now the same time this 3 family home sits vacant shes the only tenant till she finds a place.  

Of course I have a well established team in place in my Yakima office.  

You can still see two police officers in the photo, although you probably wouldn't realize.First pic is the one from the MLS, second from google maps.

If they can't do that call several other offices and try to find one who will.

This works where I am because we don't need attorneys for closings, it is usually handled with the title company and real estate agents in one of their offices (if you are doing cash), or in a local title company office if you are getting a mortgage.
