Or maybe you read through minutes of local meetings online? 

This probably sounds a little like wholesaling or being a Realtor, and it is.If you don't want to spend $1,000's to build this out and take on the associated tasks, there are other, more cost effective, options.I'd recommend looking for potential deals via free (or low-cost sources) i.e. local meetups/networking, Courts (probate & lis pendens lists), Realtors, Wholesalers, properties for sale online (especially those with 90+ days on market), etc.All the best!

@James Harryton Look on Craigslist, Zillow, Redfin, Rentometer, and other online sites to see what others are charging for rent in your area. 

Online forums?

Dream on Me Industries, the company behind the brand’s rebirth last year, announced the shift to a digital-first strategy, focusing solely on online shopping.

If you win, they want you to win and they will set you up to bid high and fail.If you are talking about online actions, those come with a 5-10 percent buyer premium and often get ghost bid up and relisted until it hits their reserve.

The price is posted, and it's the same with almost every other business.I would go online and do a rent comp analysis on what current market rents for your type unit are getting, and if you're afraid of losing them, then you can give them a discount.If a tenant has a larger space, more amenities, a parking space, then you can add additional rent.

COCO, a prominent investor in Bali, is one of many who have recognized this potential.

At least at the court steps... not sure how that will work with online auctions via Xome or Auction.com.It sounds like I may need to capture this funding arrangement under a different instrument.
