@Anthony Warren Thank you for your service!

Talk to them about their services.2) Call the local reps from the national chains, Marcus & Millichap, CBRE, JLL.

I signed on with Real Estate Federal's lead service in December 2017, and as of now (Mar 3 2018) I have received no leads whatsoever for my $1950 initial investment with them.

But they are too expensive, so I decided to switch service company.

There is NO source available to anyone for current balance information outside of the servicer and borrower (Even the trustee/attorney only knows the reported debt amount).

I would add that the strategy of bidding lower than total debt has been successfully challenged in many districts if the servicer goes after the borrower for a deficiency later.

If the seller is financing the deal, who will service the loan?  

It’s simple, although the plumbing is inside the wall, it EXCLUSIVELY services your unit, thus your responsibility.

We're one of only 14 forensic tax engineering firms in the country that can provide such a high level of service and accuracy.

I would likely enlist the service of a property management company  even if it cuts into cash flow (time/headache saved well worth the cost to me).Any help/advice/encouragement is much appreciated.
