We do a good job of compiling voluntary liens (mortgages), but we don't currently track involuntary liens (IRS, judgements, etc), and since our systems build title history on tens of millions of properties, no human has verified their accuracy, and we certainly do not guarantee it. 

I'm glad to hear that I am on the right track.

It is admittedly a bit of an odd area in terms of layout since it has the highways and train tracks breaking it up, but it's still very affordable.

I know it stagnated for a few years but it seems to be back on track.

Hi, my name is Kendrick I'm 23yr old currently with an associates degree in criminal justice, I received in May 2015 my wife started going to college and was pregnant with my son who just turned one years old February 6th.

I guess they would be some kind of dual agent.

Things can get a little crazy if you have no way to track cold, warm and hot leads.

I prefer to have all the income and expenses tracked to the penny and my accountant appreciates it as well come tax time (lower tax prep bill). 

Either way they had to run credit checks on all 4 and cosigners and keep track of 4 rents, so nothing was different. and there was nothing that could stop them from doing that, so i told them i would agree to $300/ lease for a group and $100 / person if separate leases, so they make $100 more on a group of 4, not $900. but they do a lot of other things that free up my time and i do not have to worry about, listing, background checks, leases, maintenance issues, collecting rents, etc. they are worth it for me since my properties are 3 hours away.
