Frequently asked questions

What is an absentee owner?

An owner whose mailing address differs from the property address — they don't live there. Out-of-state absentee owners in particular tend to be more willing to sell.

Can I focus on tired landlords specifically?

Yes. Combine absentee ownership with signals like eviction filings, vacancy, or long hold times to find landlords most likely ready to exit.
