But the general public or one off investors starting out like yourself can call the customer service line and ask for a TRIO a Trio is a copy of the last recorded deed a copy of the assessors tax page and a plat map.. they will have it to you with in 2 to 3 minutes via e mail generally its just a couple of clicks for you.. 

"Will he (the OP) ever return, oh will he ever return, his fate is still unlearned" Known informally as "Charlie on the MTA" 1959 by the KIngston Trio 

That's a powerful trio.

Jumped a trio of guys from 2 in several months to another 4 in 30 days.

I do recall having a bite similar to how they feed. they bite in trios basically.

but to be frank i never used it since we get date downs on the phone and TRIOS e mailed to us while we are on the phone.. a TRIO in our market is the picture of the assessors page.. lots of info.. copy of last recorded deed  how they took title.. and a plat map.. this was key to us.. since all i needed was the last recorded deed and I could do my own warrnety deeds in house.. the deed had the legals.. and current vesting.. so you just did a deed from current owner to my company takes less than 5 minutes to prep.. get them to a notary and walk it into the recorders office.. thats how we did most of our deals as there was never time to get title insurance.. now to be fair one off investors may have trouble taking title this way when they go to resell.. but we have our relationships so they were good insuring our purchases.. but do be careful trying this yourself.. especially hand written deeds.. 

When an offer is accepted take the paperwork to a title company to open escrow, put down earnest money, inspect the trio and title reports, get the professional inspections you’d like to have done, negotiate the deal if necessary from your due diligence, make sure your financing is in place, and then close on the deal at the scheduled closing time.Take the keys and then get to work.

It's part of a trio of cities Hurst-Euless-Bedford (aka...HEB) that are situated along Hwy 183, and are separated from Irving by DFW Airport. 

quick call over to customer service at WFG I get a trio this wholesaler obviously does not own the property.. quick search on dept of real estate shows he was licensed but is now not..

So for us. if you have a bank loan on the property and most do.. you can be 99% sure the bank got title insurance.. you take the last recorded deed which the title company will send me in what's called a TRIO .. give them an address on the phone and within 120 seconds the TRIO is in your in box..
