From another site, with a link to
sunlarkresearch dot com

anyone ever try this sort of thing? I think it sounds interesting ... I've been talking to my boss about having 1/2 day off a week and this might just be the way to spend that time, plus my lunch hour that I rareky take!

anyone know anything about it?


"What does a court researcher do?

There are many types of court researchers gathering various information from the public records available. The type of research depends on the needs of the client. When you are at the recorder, registrar of deeds, or bureau of conveyance office (or other name, depending on your locale), you will meet people who are researching records for much more detailed information than what we need. In some areas, we also collect information from court documents, including civil case filings.

We generally are picking up very basic information from the documents available, such as names and addresses. We then enter the information into database or spreadsheet software, depending on the needs of the client.

The amount of work available in a given county depends largely on the population base and growth and mobility of the area. Very small counties (i.e. 10,000 people) may have only one hour of work per month while a very large county (over 1,000,000 population) could keep a fast-working researcher busy for 30-40 hours per week and could even need to be done by a team."


I am doing it in TN for tax lien records. I is easy to do. It requires you to collect the data, enter it into a spreadsheet and email it in. They provide you with support for questions you might have and that's it. The tax liens pay 30 cent per record, but it is a little extra money and in this economy, every little bit helps.

me too! I really have to get cracking on the Amazon turking thing, and the other surveys, I did okay at first but then stopped visiting the sites, so I'm about 1/2 way to a bunch of cash outs, but just haven't been making the time every day to do it. I don't have home internet so it's something that I have to work in around my duties at work, but I find myself spending a lot of time "surfing" rather than DOING something!

i never had much luck with surveys. I have dial up and it takes so long to do one that i would only get a few in a day and never got to the cash out amount.

Pandaresearch (scammers) owe me 100.00 well they say 88.00 they never gave me credit for some of my things they have been pending for almost 2 years now i never get credit no matter how much i complain and i hate to do anything else because honestly if and when i get my 100 im cancelling them. they are a rip off.
