@Ugochukwu Opara

Ugo! I want to be like you when I grow up! Lol I’m a member of BTS which I clearly forgot to mention here. I really enjoyed your presentation last week major gems dropped. I’ve been looking at multis ever since trying to formulate a strategy.

@Jennifer Pauyo @Jared Forman Thank you for your responses! I'm not sure how I missed them. 


I recall hearing that if the property was vacant 90 days prior to the sale the right of redemption does not apply. Are you still unable to get title insurance in this case?

Is anyone familiar with assigning the winning bid from the philadelphia sheriff sale? I'm most interested in knowing how that would work out for a wholesale deal? I don't see any upcoming seminars posted on the sheriff's site, so I figured I ask here.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Sharnise Stokes welcome to BP! I'm a newbie as well, but you've made a great choice by joining this community. There are so many resources here to learn from. I've been listening to all the podcasts and they are great. If you dive in there you will find all the answers to your questions and more. YouTube is also pretty good for finding videos on topics that you may need some clarification on. 

As far as your question regarding an attorney to close the deal, I believe that is dependent on your state. Some states may require you only use a title company. That would be something you'd have to research, or hopefully someone from your state will chime in here. I hope this helps a little. 

-Mary :)

Yes, I watched Daniel Wiafe's video on listsource and Steph Davis has a video on blockshopper. Someone else suggested DIG to me as well. I will definitely check them out. Thank you!

 Hi Michael! 

      I'm a newbie in the philly area as well. I have found a few videos on YouTube that outline how to use listsource and blockshopper.com as tools to find which areas cash buyers are buying in. I hope this helps you. 

Also just curious which REIA did you attend? There are so many in the philly area.
