How Do You Know The Interior Of The House (i.e.,3bd-2ba, Lv, Etc.)?
i am a newbie and can't wait to get the ball roling. i have a prospect, a vacant, red tag SFH. i have identified the owner, and the phone #. But before calling the person, i would like to know how many bedrooms it has, how many living rooms, etc., so that i can run the comps and come up with a basis of fair price when it's fixed up.
by the way, my plan is to flip it quickly.
can anyone help me with this? anything will be greatly appreciated. 
You should check with your local county appraisers or recorders office for this information. You may even be able to check it online. Do a google search for your local county website, you may just find it there.
The town hall assessors office should have all that information for you to get.
