Who do I market to using public records?

Brendan M Brown

Hello all.

I recently signed up for ReboGateway, which if you are unfamiliar with it is a public record database. I must say, it is really cool. Tons of information on there. However, with all this information, what do I do with it?

I know where in my market I'd like to target, but I'm having a hard time figuring who I want to market to. 

I know I know, "What's your strategy Brendan?". Well, I am currently looking for a live-in rental (triplex -Quad) while simultaneously attempting to start a side-flipping hustle. 

Ultimately, my question is, without actually having to drive around the city every day, is there a way I can narrow down distressed properties through the use of public records? The only thing I can think of is looking for properties that have lower assessed values or transfer values.

Any suggestions?
