I consistently have the ability, between my thorough/ hands on property management team ( that I assembled and manage), construction ability encompassing all aspects, and successful tenant placement procedures...to acquire houses, renovate them, and have them pay me rent of 9-1000 a month over and over again, while costing me right at what you are talking about out the door. 

Then I developed a relationship with a title company that sent me profiles with copies of all deeds and mortgages on a given property that I focused on.If you want specialized data from courthouse (not county recorder) such as probate, divorce, lawsuits, etc.) you'll need to physically visit the courthouse and ask a clerk the local system for pulling files from which you will manually review individual cases and pull relevant data.Beyond this, you'll just need to begin and assemble a hit list of leads and market to them to separate suspects and prospects.

Assembling a great team, including PM will be a must! 

You'll learn as you go how to really nail down costs in advance- and you'll also assemble a team to help you get those repairs done cost effectively and efficiently (time is money).  

Will this be a self assembled driving for dollars list or does it come from a data provider?

I used them for my house you can save some money if you're able to assemble them and install them yourself.

Know the area rental rates so that you can be certain the property will cash flow and cash flow well.Aside from that I suggest assembling a "team" of strong local advocates.  

if that doesn't resolve it, you may have to disassemble pop up assembly and clean it out. 

Currently I am working on saving capital, gaining knowledge, laying some groundwork, and assembling a team.

HmmmThis outside of the box thinking is very interesting to me, because if you can essentially assemble the team (especially with VA’s) to combine strengths and make quick massive progress initially instead of just putting together what you can yourself with minimal assistance and pivoting as you go, it sounds like you have potential to run at a much more accelerated rate.
