What are YOU looking for when driving for dollars?

I finally got in the car and started Driving For Dollars this weekend. I actually really enjoyed doing it, and the time flew by as I was.

My question is about what others are looking for when they are Driving For Dollars. Obviously everyone is looking for the distressed houses (ie. Vacant). But what else are you looking for? What kinds of houses/properties are you adding to your database? Are you adding any house on the block that is not up to the same level as the other houses on the block? 

I'm just looking for ideas to expand my criteria for what I put on my list as I'm driving. Because around here (Seattle / Tacoma / Bellevue area), I'm not coming across a whole lot of vacant houses, and I'd like to start casting a wider net.

I've been test driving the Property Radar app on the three-day trial (which is awesome, by the way, and I will be continuing the subscription), so it's fairly easy for me to see what kind of equity, etc. is in a house while I'm driving past it.
