For me, once I understood the numbers side of things, I immediately discovered that real estate was about to be a lot more fun.

MFA then means Multi Factor Authentication - - combining multiple secretes, such as Password, Security Question, BIO input (eg finger print).

If you think you will go FHA, Conventional, 203k, etc. and then Quit Claim the property, to a LLC, or a Land Trust you run the risk of the lender discovering a Title Transfer occurred and activating the "Acceleration Clause" or "Due on Sale Clause" that requires the loan to be paid in full, within 'x' number of days.

What I got from your post is - Someone tell me a secret area that is about to be the next hot growth area and how to get a list of the names and numbers of the multi-family owners there and how to figure out which ones are good deals so I can immediately collect a large check.It doesn't work that way or everyone would be doing it.

As I'm sure you've discovered, Bigger Pockets is the ultimate game changer when it comes to successful real estate investing.

Ask any title company for a Preliminary Title Report (costs a few hundred) and they should discover any outstanding liens.
