If you're new to parental or home
ownership duties, you're probably also new to having not much more than the value of a Happy Meal
in your
checking account, too, so we'll try to
keep this list below $ 30k at least to start.
I manage the volume by every 2 months doing the following: (1)
check every property on the MLS, and if it's on MLS submit offer to agent if it is
in distress, otherwise ignore; (2) look to see on the County Appraiser if the property was sold / transfer
ownership, or has a new absentee address - and if it was sold, watch for the price: if it was for $ 100 or some other suspect amount, I treat this as if the owner is another family member dealing with the property and
keep mailing.
