Comp HELL!!!

Ok, so here is the thing. I have tried Zillow, redfin, hotpad, homes.com, relator.com, trulia.com, looked in the tax records, sitexdata.com, and a few other pay sites.

There are very little comps I can find, I mean like scraping the bottom of the barrel may be able to find 1-2 recent sales in the entire city area, not even in the same neighborhood, conditions or anything. I have four people waiting on me to pull together offers and make appointments but I don't really have anything to go on. (these sellers are likely unmotivated but I would still like the practice, they may want to sell in the future)

Does anyone have any advise or ideas that could help me? I would really appreciate I have been searching the interwebs for several days and coming up mostly empty handed. I appreciate any help. Thanks.

Just a thought, if you are having trouble pulling sold data because of a lack of sales that might be a trigger to be really careful in those areas. Sometimes I will get leads in smaller towns around me that don't have much buy/sell activity. I don't like these situations because it means I might be sitting on the property for a looooooong time.

So if you are trying to wholesale or retail be leery.
