I've been using Intelius but I notice that the numbers there are usually old phone numbers and haven't been able to reach many like that.  Is anyone else using it?  what's your experience with the software?  or is anyone using any other company to get better data.

I would appreciate the feedback

thanks,

Hi Rick, 

I have been on a quest this month to discover exactly that - a piece of software that gives me the best phone numbers and options. Have you had any luck or additional information since this post?

No one has addressed: 

1. How to obtain a list of prospects for cold calling (or warm leads)

2. How to obtain their phone numbers

Where I am here, RealtyTrac's data was always rather stale. Didn't find it as useful as I had hoped.

 That is good information to share. Accurate data is so important.

Hi @Ashley Hernandez, I am also looking for this type of accurate (and updated) data. On another thread someone mentioned going directly to the first tier source - the counties. Any knowledge you have on connecting with your local county for this information?

@Jeff Kehl thanks for the link, I will read up. 

@Brenda B. Absolutely agree. I think I assumed that data is difficult to obtain and parse through. I will commit more time to asking about my local area. Where do you go for the information? The tax assessors office?

While I have found some basic information, I am curious who has the best most recent data for pre-foreclosure and foreclosure information. Down to the county would be ideal. 

I feel like I have heard the government maintains an Excel file, freely available somewhere. 

Any tips?

Hello folks, 

Really need some sage advice here. 

A man who owns multiple properties is having a very difficult time due to 3 main lenders (all hard money) requesting pff of his balloon loan. In short he used HML's to finance rentals. His cap rate was so good, the 12% interest payments didnt matter. The total amount he owes left on his properties is about $1.3 million.

Now he is trying to pay off the loans before they go to auction. 

He owns two properties in Hollywood. I've looked at the value and it's over $3 Million combined. He wants a loan of $500,000 and will --- "..sign the deed over until I can pay back the loan. In the meantime you can collect the rents" which are currently $18,500 a month. 

First problem: He has a cloud on the title because the properties are held in a Trust. He is named as the trustee but there is a case being filled by a former member of the trust to not allow him to sell or something. He says he has the deed. 

  1. What are my next steps?
  2. How can I protect myself? 
  3. Is anyone willing to help me on this odd transaction for a split of the rent?
  4. There is no more information I can provide at this time. 

Thank you all so much!

This way the tasks can be split up in the future.

 Good idea Percy.
