I was wondering what some investors might say about the standard output data vs. standard mortgage leads.

I've read through the guide, I've been listening to the podcasts and been browsing around.... analyzed some deals, gone through data, i.e. populations in cities, average home pricing, average rent, etc.

If it was a contractor you may be able to get the contractor to come back and do the work but normally you have to transfer warrantied work into your name prior to closing.

Nobody in the industry can execute well on securities law, real estate, technology, data science, marketing, institutional financing, etc.  

If there's no deed - what will the bank transfer to me? 

I look for the transfer of ownership and I work from there to find the current owner.

I have been through this a number of times, and I also worked for the IRS, and I have never seen anyone other than the taxpayer, the taxpayer's representative, or a licensed escrow or fiduciary agency handling a transfer, get a tax lien released.But it looks like you could make the situation work for you.  

The closing statement should have documented the security deposit transfer from the seller to the buyer.

Also, be careful reviewing the loan/mortgage you will be taking out on the property to verify that the LLC will own the property or, if transferred to the LLC after closing, that the transfer does not trigger the "due on sale" clause of the loan.

I can have my assistant schedule time to go over our spreadsheets that cover data on 278 markets across the U.S. and detail which markets are the best cash flow markets.
