Next, licensing for door to door solicitations, I bet you have that covered.Now, real estate license issues, how you pay can make a difference.

As for identifying real estate currently vested in names of two or more owners with a life estate and a remainderman (the legal term for the other interest), I'll bet there aren't that many of them.

(This is also based on my experience at the end of 2015, I haven't been in 2016 yet).Sorry don't have much more to add, but I'd bet that others on BP have actually purchased properties there.

You could respond to ads, do online search, use the reference sites, including advo and the local Bar Association, however this may still not get you to a suitable practitioner.I'll bet there will be noticing issues, perhaps litigation. 

Its that 15 degree's of separation.. there was a novel ( fiction)  that was popular in the 90's called the Celetine prophecies and the upshot is you never know were a chance meeting will lead you.. but you have to MEET.. not just hid behind a computer. ( not that your hiding behind a computer ) but you get what I mean.. it takes getting out there and mixing and that one meeting could change your life..

@Shavonne Justin Your best bet is to talk a someone with local MLS access to run you some rental comps or talk to a couple local property managers in the area.

In other parts of the country the assessment value is much closer to actual value but that is not true in Vegas.You are correct that Zillow is hit or miss as well so don't use that for comps either.Your best bet is establish a relationship with a local Realtor that can provide you with solid sold comps for value.

I've seen people talk about rentals and it seems like that is so risky and only slightly profitable due to maintenance costs and vacancy and stuff.Flipping houses seems like a much safer bet with bigger gains judging from the success stories.Again this is probably a stupid question with alot of missing variables.

I'm not looking to invest in NY so I think buying access to MLS in other areas of the country will be my best bet.
