@Burt L.  Your observations are right on. I'm in Twin Cities MN and I'm finding the same thing thing here. Asking how much you have left on the mortgage is a hit or miss also. I've gotten "none of your biz.." a few times.

In general I like to focus on educating/talking about area comp's......that way I can see how serious of an offer they are making.

I have bought lead propeller and I and verify that it's a time saver if you have never built a website before (like I have). In addition, Danny, who is a computer geek of some sort (Sorry Danny, but I do love your story about what drove you from geek-world to flipping) uses his flipping experience to optimize a website for what we all do.....wholesaling, flipping, getting leads...the website is so user friendly it allows you to tailor whatever you want to focus on,wholesaling,  RE selling,,,,and it comes crystal clear videos narrated by you guessed it Danny the ace flipper ;)

If BP was amazon, i'd give it 5 stars.

Nice addition to BP. Way to go @ Joshua Dorkin.

@Antonio Coleman. Thanks for the info.

I found a list company that sells me a list that will be excusive to me for at least 6 months.

I also supplement that with DFD

@Keith Bloemendaal, @Stanley Okazaki, @Josh Davis, thanks for the feedback.

Turns out that working with an investor-friendly realtor (as I'm doing currently) is the best way to go.

So I'm in the process of evaluating an offer and my first step is to do comps. Some investors use Zillow.com (not too reliable data-wise) and then there is the investor-freindly "findcompsnow.com". I think findcompsnow.com is optimized for the west coast. I'm in the midwest (minnesota). Anyone care to suggest a reliable comp system other than the mls?

Thanks BPer's.

@Antonio Coleman

Thanks for the input.

Ray.

Other than ListSource, can some one please recommend good investor-friendly list companies?

Thanks in advance everyone.

@Dave Gallogly

Dave, prior to reading your post I emailed city hall and you are RIGHT, they are full of excuses.

So....please walk me through the process. I go to city hall and "pull" all properties ......

Do I do that on a computer at city call? Will they give me access?

Thanks!

Ray.

Hey @Dave Visaya: How do  I add the "verified" symbol next to my profile picture?

Cheers,
