A lady called this morning wanting to sell a property she owns but when I pulled up the address on the tax appraisal website it says that it's owned by First National Acceptance Company.

She said that she bought it from someone who is carrying the note. She said that the house wasn't being foreclosed or anything but that she was going to pay two months worth of payments in the mail today unless she sold it.

Is this a case where the note holder stopped paying on the note and the bank foreclosed? Or, is she giving me the run around?

Sounds like you need to call First National Acceptance Company. If it's a deal, I would still get it under contract just in case she's telling the truth. Who knows, maybe First National (whoever they are) is the note holder, or maybe they bought the note from who ever originally created it?

Either way, a quick phone call can clear it up. If you can't get ahold of them the title company can (or closing attorney). If there is a problem, the title company will find it pretty quick.

That's funny, I'll have to find a remedy for that before going to a town hall meeting with the liberals out here.

Problem Solved, that thing is awesome.

I had a friend email this link over to me and I thought some of you might like to see it. This is Rep. Tom Price of Georgia talking about the Health Care bill. It's refreshing to see someone in govt. actually speaking on behalf of the people.

I use to take the freedoms I had in this country for granted. Now that I am faced with losing more and more of them each day I have woke up to the fact that anything really is possible and that is not always a positive. I would never had thought I'd have seen the day that this country put a socialist in office either but it happened. I would never have thought our government would have had the audacity to force their way into something as important the our right to choose our health care and providers either but its happening.

Karen,

I don't know what's scarier to me, the possibility of loosing freedom or that nearly half the country is OK with it. Education is more important in this country right now then it ever has been.

Hello everyone,
I am kind of a beginner. I have been studying real estate for a while now. My goal is to buy a property and rent it out. Now, I need help developing my Power Team. I have looked through the BP for power teams suchs as https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/109-goals-business-plans-entities/topics/552

But what actual questions do I ask them to make them qualify for my team. Do I just go up to them and ask " Hey, I'm looking to invest in Indianapolis and I am trying to develop my power team."

Also, I know that when you talk to your realtors you can ask them for referrals. But what comes next??? How do i actually talk to these people and have them join my team? I'm really struggling at this. Maybe it's easy but i just can't follow. Maybe you guys have a script or something to say to these people?
Any opinions would be so helpful! Thanks in Advance.

I think your over thinking this. As far as a "Power Team" I'm assuming your talking about a Realtor, CPA, Real Estate Attorney, Title company, etc. The guru's like to make it seem like some magical journey that will guarantee your success once you find all those people, I'm sure there is a $4997 boot camp on the topic somewhere.

The bottom line is you need to meet with these people and see if your comfortable with them and that their expertise matches what your looking to do. There is no mystery here, just pick up the phone and start calling. Another option, and perhaps even better way to go would be to join your local REIA and talk with fellow investors and see who they are using. Alot of times you'll see a pattern and hear the same names being referred over and over.

if your seller doesn't care then you can decide.

I'm pretty sure that is a state issue, not federal. I've had a few realtors tell me I can pick my own title company. That said, I'm still not clear if that is a law or if they just want to make it a non issue and allow me to choose.

Thank you all for your input. I've started taking ALL sales that I can get and sorting it on my own to get my comps rather then having an agent sort it for me. I never looked at any of these sites as being a final say but it would be nice if someday they can get a better handle on it.

The Ticor Title in my area will also email me comps on request. Again I don't ask for "comps", I ask for ALL sales in a 1 mile radius in the last 90 days and then I sort through the data and find my own comps.
