You can also find public mortgage info on those comps and if they werent sold to another bank you should be able to find who holds the mortgage whom im guessing would do it again.Good luck.

I think that's due to increased public interest in your strategy and the strength of the DFW market lately.

Is there a database for the public to use?

Sources--water source, well or public, if well check it, is it working, water flow adequate, water quality, when last tested and results, is the water shared, age of pump, holding tank size, etc., sewage, sewer or septic, if septic, where is the tank and where is leach field, is the leach filed area soggy?

Honestly, you can find deals that are public you just gotta know what a deal looks like.

And mine is running so high I am embarrassed to say it in public  :)

Exhaustive due diligence and conservative underwriting should protect you, but stuff happens and there are things that cannot be predicted. 

We found the deal in the foreclosure listings through the office of the public trustee website How did you finance this deal?

I want to make sure my assets are protected so I would like to know some opinions on what types of insurance I should have and when it makes sense to transition to a LLC because I currently own the properties personally.

Having 5 units also does give you some protection if 1-2 units have tenant issues, which is good.The estimated closing costs of $3,000 seems a bit low to me, but that certainly varies widely from lender to lender and from area to area.
