Dash Hernandez

Dash Hernandez is a real estate agent and real estate investor based in Florida, and the author of SCOUTRE's guides on property ownership, skip tracing and working properties in the field. She founded Port St Lucie Talks, a Florida news media outlet, and with her husband owns Good Neighbor Home Buyers. She writes about the work she does, in the market SCOUTRE serves.

Who is Dash Hernandez?

Dash Hernandez is a real estate agent and a real estate investor in Florida. That is the same market the guides describe: finding out who owns a house, reaching that owner, and deciding whether there is a deal in it. Three things she runs make that first-hand:

• Real estate agent and investor, Florida. She works as an agent and invests in property in Florida, which is the market the ownership records, county practices and owner conversations in these guides come from.
• Founder, Port St Lucie Talks. A news media outlet in Florida. A newsroom runs on public records and sources that have been checked.
• Owner, with her husband, of Good Neighbor Home Buyers. A home-buying company, which is the buy side of the same transaction the guides prepare you for.

Her professional profile is on LinkedIn. Port St Lucie Talks and Good Neighbor Home Buyers are her own separate businesses, not SCOUTRE products.

Why does a working agent write these guides?

Because the questions in them are the ones she answers in her own work. "Who owns this house?" is not a research exercise when you are the one trying to buy it — it is the step everything else waits on. The guides are written the way a practitioner would explain it to another practitioner: the free county route first, what it costs in time, where it breaks, and what a paid tool does differently.

That is also why the guides say what SCOUTRE does not do. Coverage varies by county. Skip-trace hit rates vary by property. Equity and mortgage figures are estimates derived from recorded loan history and assessed values, not statements of an account balance. Those limits are in the guides because they are true in the field.
