Find Killer Deals At Your County Courthouse

There are several unique strategies to find a killer investment deal. You just have to get creative in your search for these deals.

When a couple get divorces there is generally a house involved. This property needs to be sold in order to satisfy the divorce settlement. Divorce filings are public record and can be found by visiting your county courthouse. You can usually access these records online by searching for your county courthouse. I suggest visiting your county courthouse periodically to search for killer deals. Once you get the divorce filing information send a letter to the couple involved letting them know that you are interested in buying their property.

The most useful public records for Real Estate Investing are:
  • Notices of default (pre-foreclosures)
  • Real Estate Auctions (foreclosures and Tax sales)
  • Wills (Probate Properties)
  • Divorce Records ( Divorce Records)
