Essentials for diddling in Florida Real Estate

In case you want to take advantage of Florida's real estate opportunities, or deal with foreclosures, I recommend studying these sites, and making my recommended methodology part of your property acquisition strategy.

Mortgage Attack

http://mortgageattack.com
the methodology in a nutshell: 

• fight the foreclosure of a valid note which the borrower breached, and you will eventually lose the house;
  
• attack the mortgage (its underlying torts, breaches, and errors), and you have a chance of winning.

If you want personal attention right now, save the attached Mortgage Attack Questionnaire with your name appended to the file name, then fill it in, and email it as instructed on the form.

Learn the law and become disposed to using it.
