Hey All,

I was thinking - this might be a good idea for a sticky. While there are many paid services to perform court searches for evictions on potential tenants, many courts offer them for free as well. For instance, in Michigan I found this link and learned a whole lot about both my inherited tenants and the tired landlord I purchased my investment from (and the reason he must be so tired!)

https://secure.courts.michigan.gov/jis/ This link took me a bit of searching to find and I've seen other threads where landlords have mentioned places to look. Anyone have any other free links to court records searches in your area? Maybe we could aggregate them all in this thread and it would be a pretty good resource for other investors...
