Yes I have the address from searching the property tax records for the county. 

Is this basically where direct mail / flyer posting strategies come into play? I have no experience doing that type of thing and have only read about it on here. 

Have you ever done that and/or had success in doing so?

 Hi Kyle 

To be frank, my role is limited to researching and offering this info for investors. 

Other experts here should be able to guide you better.

The bank has no authority to sell, until after, and if, they get it back at the auction.  Prior to the auction it's like a normal sale, the owner has to agree.  If you're paying more than the bank pay off, regular sale.  If you want to pay less than the mortgage total pay off, it's a short sale, with all that involves.

 I agree with Wayne. One can easily find property owners mailing address from the property tax records.

Hi All

Based on my research over the years I can categories probates leads sources into four. 

1. Probates Records which are available online with all info required. 20% of counties offer this data online.

2. Probate records which are available online but not all info is provided. 30% of counties offer this info. Over and above 15% mentioned in category 1. 

3. Probate records not offered online close to 50% of counties. 

4. Obituaries records with RE and Trusts. One can research to find whether deceased owns real estate.  Almost all counties are covered in this category. 

Key points to consider are 

1. Not all probate records filed has RE associated. Research to identify RE associated records saves time, money and energy. 

2. Some investors run campaign early, as soon as probates are filed, others after 6 months etc.. Key is to run the campaign  multiple times at regular intervals

At a times it's good to have a third party negotiate on our behalf. This can be an addition to the list.

Welcome to the site. It depends in your goals with regards to the subject property and overall real estate business.

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Closed my first deal in 2007 after searching for 6 months. Its a memorable one and I had to push myself hard to convince myself it's the right thing for me. I almost drop the idea of being an investor. I am Glad that I did the deal against friends and family, who suggested otherwise.
