MAO FORMULA
MAO = ARV × 0.70 − Estimated Repairs − Desired Assignment Fee Example: $412K ARV × 0.70 = $288,400 − $25,000 repairs − $25,400 fee = $238,000 offer

FLORIDA LAW COMPLIANT

Built for legal wholesaling.
Chapter 475.41 from day one.

Florida statute prohibits marketing real property without a real estate license. LienHunter is built to comply: we market equitable interest in assignable contracts — never the property itself. Every lead output includes compliance framing and attorney/title review prompts.

✓ Public records only — no scraping personal data
✓ Equitable interest marketing only — no property advertising
✓ Title/attorney review recommended on every deal
✓ Assignment deal checklist included with every lead

The leads are there. Every day.
Public record. Waiting to be found.

Most wholesalers look in the same places. LienHunter looks where nobody else does — county clerk official records, tax collector delinquency lists, code enforcement filings, probate courts. Finds the motivated seller before they list. Puts you in position to assign the contract before the property ever hits the market.
