TIETOJA TÄSTÄ JAKSOSTA
When a distressed real estate deal is stuck — deceased owner, missing heirs, a messy title no one can cure — Stephanie Shepherd is who investors call. Known as a "breakthrough specialist," she's built her name on the research side of the business: skip tracing, heir hunting, family-tree building, and untangling curative title problems most people walk away from.
In this episode of Dirty Deeds, Logan Fullmer sits down with Stephanie to unpack the exact process behind her work — why she skip traces a mailing address instead of a name, how she builds family trees on Ancestry to identify rightful heirs, how she reads century-old deeds and Sanborn maps when legal descriptions change, and the cold call script she designed so it never sounds like a scam.
They also cover the eye-opening reality of how your personal data gets sold (yes, the pizza place and the oil change count), plus a jaw-dropping case: a father who forged his own homeless son's deed and cashed a $121K insurance check — and how they fought to make it right.
A must-listen for anyone in wholesaling, tax-delinquent property, probate, or distressed acquisitions.
