If, though, you're going to be a single-member LLC with minimal assets, you'd be fine to form one on your own through the website for the Georgia Secretary of State.

Something similar to REI BalckBook, but without the websites and marketing tools?

You can also send messages to members which is my favorite part of the website.

With HUD, you can check their website: www.Hudhomestore.com, but you won't have any luck contacting them directly I'm afraid.

I'm Tobi Van Zandt  My husband and I are real estate investors that recently stumbled across this website while in search of a way to finance more properties because we've "run out of loans."

Hey @David Gillette are you using the app or the actual website on your browser?

Problem is, you have no legal right to enter the property until until after the full amount of the bid is paid, and this risk of 'potential unknowns' makes getting even hard money virtually impossible, no matter how good the deal is.I always allow for an absolute maximum cost total rehab in my figures on any property I bid on (and always check the property externally), and there's still plenty of 'meat on the bone'.

Is there a website where I can get rating (ABC etc.) and how reliable it is?
