Finding distressed/motivated sellers

Enrique Robles

Hello BP community. After a lot of reading, listening to podcasts and youtube videos. I have decided that Wholesaling is the way I want to start investing. 

Im more than sure that I have the right idea when it comes to finding tax deliquency houses and houses going into foreclosures. And once I do find the house, I send them direct mail that I am interested in purchasing their house and helping as best as I can. I understand that much so far.

My question is. How do I find sellers that recently lost a loved one and are looking to sell, out of state owners who now longer come to chicago and looking to sell, etc? 

Also, should I start contacting cash buyer investors before finding a house or once I have a house under contract?

BP podcast episode 12. Best part was hearing Brandon say there are investors like him who do not have time to find the next best deal so they love wholesellers.
