I walk you through the process of using blue dots on the map and searching Google for property addresses to check their status. It's crucial that we avoid properties listed by realtors due to associated fees and the difficulty in negotiating with them. Instead, I encourage you to focus on for-sale-by-owner listings, as they allow for more emotional engagement with the sellers. Please make sure to follow these guidelines when assessing potential properties.
