Newbie to wholesaling

[James Charles]

Im a newbie to wholesaling. I work 11 hr shifts. I get paid real good but i'm looking to have financial freedom. Im trying to stay focus but its hard coming home to my 2 kids thats 5 yrs old n a 4 month old baby. Im usually physically and mentally drained by the time i get home. So its hard for me to put maximum effort into researching. But ive been doing my best so far, until 2 days ago where i was just stuck on trying to find absentee owners list or any sellers. Im willing to work with experience wholesalers to get more knowledge in the game. Is there any sites  anyboby out there that knows how to receive them? Could someone point me in the right direction? Is there anything that i need to know? Would appreciate any help.
