Self-funded searchers // What does your pre-LOI research process actually look like?

We are researching how self-funded searchers evaluate deals before submitting an LOI. Specifically, the manual research phase (pulling public records, checking liens, verifying licenses, looking for red flags) before you've committed money to attorneys or a QoE. We're curious how much time this takes, what your process looks like, and what (if anything) you wish worked differently. We're in the early stages of exploring whether there's a better way to handle this part of the search, and we'd love to learn from people who are actively looking at deals or have recently closed. If you'd be willing to hop on a###-###-#### minute call, we'd really appreciate it. As a thank-you, once we're further along, we'd love to give you something useful in return. Reach out at redacted
