hud properties that are for home owners in the first 20 days

[Jeff Hart]

As an investor how do I get an opportunity to buy the properties that are only for home owners to bid on in those first 20 days.

As I was listening to one of the podcasts (I don't remember which one, that is the problem).  I heard someone say that they became a licensed real estate ______ (blank) I can't remember.  But by doing this they were able to purchase these homes and then resell them on contract.  By doing this they got first crack at the purchase.

Does anyone know how this works.

Thanks

Jeff
