You’re buying the note, but it doesn’t mean that you own the property yet and there are certain things that have to take place before you can make a move.” “Keep in mind – you gotta know where you stand, you gotta know where you are, and you have to have an attorney advise you as to really what is going on, and that attorney has to be from the state where you’re buying that note.” Links   Phone: Randall Miller (248) 335 - 0800   Email: Randall Miller rmiller@millerlaw.biz rmiller@rsmalaw.com   Website: RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast    Website: REI INK https://rei-ink.com/
