The newspaper published an article saying they think a mini recession will hit Miami soon as the median income is 42k and all the middle class are being pushed out of a large area of Miami.

You can purchase lists and compile lists from city and county for 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, probate, divorce, high equity, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, foreclosure sites, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media marketing.

I was a journalist for 10 years, wrote for newspapers and magazines, and I have worked on a few of these types of lists before.

@Mark Miles Here's a section of an article that was published in the local newspaper in January of this year.

This is public record and shows up in the newspaper about a week after the close.

The truth is newspaper classified advertising is dead.

Getting my bandit signs this weekend and beginning marketing to build my buyers list through free online ad's and newspaper.

I purchased a rehab from an estate. 1200 square feet. 5 Rooms, with a basement, and a garage.This "hoarder" had newspapers, books, trash, etc., piled everywhere.We could not walk through the house, we had to walk on top of the trash!

Shawn, newspapers are written at about a 6th grade reading level, there is a reason for that.

I think I'll try my hand at newspaper ads and "we buy houses" signs.
