Greenbackd…thanks for your url…I checked it out.
In follow up to my earlier posting re: Distressed debit investing through buying pre-foreclosure notes through auction. Has anyone been engaged in this activity. Check out http://www.RealtyNoteBid.com and let me know your thoughts…has anyone used them. Do you have any other resources / info that might help in my understanding this investment channel.
