How do you find the non listed pre foreclosures with equity? And also, how do you find out who is behind with delinquent taxes?
Thank you

My partner and I started to get into real estate a few months ago. We gained a pretty solid foundation of knowledge through different mentors and meetings. About a month ago, we started looking to put properties under contract to either wholesale or flip; however, we are still here empty handed. Where does everyone look to find their deals? Are there certain lists people go after to do mailings or door knock? We would love any and all feedback. Thank you.

A little introductions are in order, my name is Steven, and I am a college student working to pay my way through (full time student and part time job). My main passion has been to make my money work for me. I love investing! It all started with value investing when I read, "The Intelligent Investor," but now I have become drawn into real estate. The biggest man in my town (I live in Tn) worked his way up in commercial property. I am drawn to his hard work and success. He began to teach me a little; however, he seems too busy to want to mentor me on a frequent basis. I would love to start a little discussion going on the best way to start into real estate. I have been meeting with a few people that flip houses, which seems to be one start into active income. I have also met people who rent homes, however, they tend to either love it because they were successful or they lost money and think real estate is horrible. Please leave a quick note on how some of you started or what you would have done knowing what you all know now. Thank you so much!
