Not sure if you're still working on this, but Todd Bukaty with nbkc bank in Kansas City (if you google "Todd Bukaty nbkc" he's the first thing to pop up) was able to help my sister with a refi on their rental property in ATL, and they have very low income. And at the time it was their only property.
Post: How to find out about an owner in a foreclosure

I'm trying to find out more about a foreclosed property where the owner listed is "U S BANK TRUST N A TRUSTEE."
I couldn't find much from googling that, so I looked up the mailing address and reached a law firm that said they can't give any info out.
How do I find out who to contact?
Thanks!

PPS: There is a search function on the FilePlace page (not the contract sub page) and searching for "lease" or "agreement" produces a number of state-specific results. Unfortunately I'm not finding a general lease for Illinois or Missouri, and "Connecticut" only produces an image that offers 7 documents for $99 but no instructions on how to purchase it...

Answered my own question/generated a follow-up question:
They're located under tools > fileplace > contracts (
https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/contracts/cate...)
However, I can't find any way to search within the documents, they seem to be in chronological order, and I can't find a way to reorder to alphabetical, topical, etc. so it seems you have to just scroll through all fifteen pages of random documents looking for what you want: does anyone know of a better way to navigate the state-specific lease agreements?

Does anyone know where on the site the state-specific rental contracts are located? I have heard them mentioning them for several months on the podcast, and I believe I heard in a recent episode that the project of having one for each state is almost complete, but I can't seem to find them... Thanks!

To claim the deduction I'm trying to find my receipt from BiggerPockets to itemize my membership: anyone know how to view your payment history with BP? I can't find any email acknowledging the actual amount of the payment...

I applaud the new location and will make it a priority to make it this month. (Not that that helped all that much last month, but barring a scheduling mistake and a babysitting crisis like last time, I'll be there!)

@Mario B., I moved from Carbondale IL for work. I looked at New London and think it's a fantastic town, probably going to see increases in value IMHO: its got great "bones" as a city, is starting to "urbanify" (trendy places starting to open) but it's way behind the curve, and it seems to me the hipsters there are still young and haven't started having kids/figuring out how to make the city work with kids--so prices are dirt cheap. Great beaches when you get out of the Thames and onto the actual coast of the Sound, puts you a couple miles from the "downtown" but still within city limits. I should note I've done a lot less research on New London than I have on Milford. I ended up settling on Milford because my work requires me to be in New Haven about four days a week and I didn't want the commute from New London--but I was really impressed with both towns. Also check out the village of Niantic just outside of New London.
