Mary,

Congratulations, your efforts are paying off! Always with a contract in hand. You might not get a 2nd shot. When is your appointment? She may want to use the Standard AAR contract but I can send you a simple 2-page investor one if you message me your email. Are you going to flip, wholesale, or rent out?

Also, if you need any contractors, landscape ppl , let me know. I tend to be resourceful in this area.

Esmima - shouldn't be an issue. Most short sales are negotiated by either the investor or a real estate agent. I rarely see attorneys do them in AZ. What is your exit strategy?

Would you recommend listsource over say , ReboGateway? What I like about Rebo is divorce, probate, and estate sales. If listsource has something comparable it might make sense just to switch, plus I'm sure they have more to offer.

I am trying to figure out how to target owners with equity.

Local title companies (even investor friendly one) don't have any way to confirm equity or filter leads with equity. The issue of course lies in people pulling out 2nds or refinancing their 1st and maxing out what they owe on the home. YellowLetter doesn't either (the count they gave me was way too high for what it should be). Suggestions please? Would like to figure out a way to get a targeted list without having to go on the county recorder website and start looking at deeds of trust manually - way too time consuming.
