If you find the secret let me know!  I kind of gave up for lack of any response.  I have been doing BPOs for a couple of companies but to get the actual REO listings, I'm at a loss on what you have to do!  There is one or two agents who seems to get ALL the listings in my area and those are the listings which seem to actually sell in a decent period of time.  I also know there are these online systems that want you to pay them money for the secrets to getting REO listings but you have to be so wary of some of that stuff.  Good luck and keep networking I guess!
