@Robert Sims Developed lot on a main 4 lane street with medium traffic?

but your right if your one off not going to get those for free.I was talking to my customer service rep at WFG the other day and he was bidding out providing title to one of the major Auction sites and they wanted pre lims for a very low number.. dont recall but it was something like 25 bucks per.. and WFG was going to pass. 

@Robert Sims, who was the podcast by?  

@Cody Sims I am waiting for one of your deals.

I would get a pre-lim report from title, along with getting the daughter to fill out a 'statement of Information' with the moms details so title can process to see if any personal liens are against the mom and the property. 

@Robert Sims Let's separate the 2 parts of a lease option. 

@Tereak Sims You will get a better response if you come across as Joe Blow looking to buy a house.

@Tereak Sims Yes, If they want your business. 

@Tereak Sims Welcome to the site.

As for @Amy Lim 's concern on performing criminal background checks, I'm not an attorney but you shouldn't have to worry about that as long as you don't make a blanket statement that you won't accept anyone with a criminal history.
