  cjmazur,
  
  Do you find these NOD deals via commercial brokers?
  
  Looking at foreclosure lists, however in most cases there was a justifiable reason for the foreclosure having to do with the property itself, requiring an immense amount of capital to get property back in shape. Too mush risk here.
  
  Thanks for the input.

  Realquest and dataquick have info lists as well as some title companies..

  cjmazur,
  
  I took a look at bluesheet. Are you buying SFR foreclosures?
  
  If i was going SFR, I work from my long list of REO bank listing websites available for free.
  
  My question was in regards to finding MFRs. I search REOs, but these have all been junk properties.
  
  Any tips for me?
  
  Thanks,
  jon.

  Commercialking,
  
  Thank you for responding to my series of questions.
  I really appreciate hearing about your background.
  
  I might be able to help with investors, although I am in San Francisco, CA. Please feel free to shoot me an email and I can forward a link to my Linkedin investment groups and deal board.
