Hi All,

I spent a ton of time perusing the state and county websites to try and find info about getting an eviction list. After making a few phone calls, I was finally directed to a page with two email addresses. I filled out a form and emailed them both separately asking for the same thing: "a list of eviction notices that have been filed in the last 180 days".

The first public employee shot back a response right away stating that they could not provide these records. My hopes were dashed. The next day I received a response from the other public employee who put the request through and told me a report was on it's way! 

Lesson: Don't stop after the first "no". (And maybe a second lesson: some people are just lazy).

Anyway, I received the report with 20,000 lines with a note "invoice to follow". After recalling that I had read a cost of $5-$7 per record, I almost passed out. It only ended up to be $15 for that report. No big deal. But the report is basically only a list of court cases involving evictions. It includes the county the court case # the type of case and the date.

My problem lies in the cost of both time and dollars. All I have is a list of court cases. I can search them all individually, but that is still $5/record. Is there an efficient and cost effective way to scrub these records?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

I am interested in learning how to acquire such list to help get started in the wholesale aspect of real estate

Let’s say I want to get the address of every 4-plex in a specific submarket. What service can be used for this type of work?

Hi Daniel. I am looking for investment only to rent out all 4 units. I have spoke to 1 Realtor only just to ask them questions and they said they couldn’t tell me anything until they run a pull on my credit which I didn’t want to do until I was ready to make an offer.

Currently I am living in a 40ft RV which I owe $10k on but plan on paying off before I try for a property that way I will be debt free and have a lower debt to income ratio.

Hi everyone, I’ve been looking into purchasing rental properties for quite a while now and I’m hoping I’m going in the right direction with things. I’m currently 27 just got married almost 2 months ago. Me and my father own a paving company. I’m looking to get started in the Dayton/Columbus Ohio area. Right now I have 30-35k for a down payment I’m about to have 2 years of w-2 working for my own Llc showing $40,000 a year and I have an 810 credit score.

I’m really wanting to purchase a 4-plex if i will be able to pull it off with my stats. Also have never had a house or mortgage.

If anyone has any suggestions or advice I highly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!
