Congrats on the prospecting but now its time to take action.
Figure out the numbers needed for the deals to make sense, start knocking on doors, get to know the sellers and their situations, make offers that make sense to move forward for investors. Once you have the price, terms, sellers name, buyers name, close of escrow date (30 days), and description of the property in writing signed (under contract), then you can focus on the other half of the equation.

Like a number have people have mentioned, don't be so quick to get in to direct mail. There 2 forces at play.
A) Focus on fixing your finances, killing off credit card debt, build up savings, increase your main source of income. Earn some OT, uber, but the best would be to get licensed as an agent. In becoming an agent you learn RE, earn some money, network with a lot of folk.
B) Listen to every podcast on the given subject you are interested but take each one with a grain of salt realize that majority of the Wholsale specific podcasts are not in your type of market. By far the best learning experience in this numbers game, while you are getting licensed, is driving for dollars, knocking on doors, and cold calling. Get your feet wet, talk to sellers, find different levels of motivation, and potentially come across investment opportunities or listing opportunities.
Start taking action in whatever you choose.
Good Luck

I think your best bet is to consult with the Tax Assessor to find out what exactly will be reassessed.
