Be sure to look at as many records as you can get your hands on.

It is also what I am currently focused on and have a positive track record with.

Trying to figure out what to do with it.My goal is to create passive income.I was thinking self-storage or even document/record storage, but it seems that the space is too small for that.Another idea is laundromat on the bottom floor and something like a barbershop on the top floor.

AND to record my money judgment in both counties where they work and live.

Don't put them on people's property.I find it funny you had no trouble putting signs on people's property and act all pissed when they are taken.For the record I take down all the signs like that in my neighborhood.

I have come across this a few times, it lists "public administrator" as the executor in probate records.

Check the recorded mortgage docs.

County Records?

He has cash to buy but would like some help purchasing at a foreclosure auction.Since i'm in FL and not familiar with the CA market, i'm looking for someone with a track record in foreclosure auctions in that area and would like to help assist in the process in exchange for a fee.Thanks.

It will be noted if the mortgage was paid off as well.Usually counties dont leave that info as accessible as the property tax records, but they are public.
