Are Motivated Seller Lists Worth It?

[Mike Vann]

I've been investing for a few years now and have managed to get up to about 85 doors (72 MF units). I've done so through a mixture of MLS and referrals from various sources. I'm ready to kick it up and would like to start doing 5-10 deals per month consisting of both SF and MF units. To get to that volume I need to build a lead generation system (deal funnel) and I'm wondering if buying a motivated seller list was worth the money? If so, what are some good reliable and cost effective sources for this info? Thanks in advance for the help!
