I met a guy recently like this and his argument was that the system was rigged, can't disagree really, as in many ways, it is.

Hi,I'm from Puerto Rico and over there what you do is go to State Property Record Office with basic information of the property, if you can get a copy of the legal description of the subject property neighbors the house before and after the subject it will help you greatly.With that information they can help you ID who was the last owner and also if there are other pending collections on record attached to the property such as second mortgage,etc.

The legal description of a condo will read something like this:Parcel 1: An undivided 1/52nd fractional interest as tenant in common of parcel map #123456 in the city of blah, blah, blah...Parcel 2: Living Unit #22B as shown in condominium plan recorded on....Parcel 3: Exclusive right to use, possess, and occupy the real estate described in condo plan...Parcel 4: Non-exclusive easement for entering and exiting common areas....And so on.

I had been on vacation in Jamaica and met a couple there who were retired on their Fort Worth apartment complex.  

So i have been on hold for 2 years met a lady friend she moved in.

Tax shelter of incomeI really haven't ever met a real estate investor that regretted buying too many properties.  

I have not met a Bay Area home owner who said that their house was worth less 20 years ago.

Whenever I am notified of an issue, I speak to the contractor after getting a description of the problem from the tenant.

Make flyers and post them around town (gas stations, supermarkets, etc).Make signs with a brief description and your phone number and place on the property and busy intersections near the house but check with your local authorities first because they can be a pain in the ***!

The contract/description was for a “duplex”, not necessarily a “legal duplex”.
