More importantly is your list How distressed are they?

I may add, this can be an opportunity for out of state investors to buy out distressed properties cash and have the insurance handle the repairs etc.

If you buy a distressed property for substantially below its last recorded selling price, it may be well worth filing a tax protest.

With wholesale...find a seller in a distressed situation, connect make an offer, get a contract signed then sell it.

They are all people that see distress in their businesses.

@Robert Scaife, no and here is why--I buy a distressed property, go on Zillow and look at the Zestimate.  

The property is in a distressed situation and would definitely need a remodel to sell for retail value (we might have to move some walls around to make the property more desirable). the property is around 60 years old with 995 sq. and around 400 sq unpermited on top of that and there is a mortgage of around 255k on it.

They just wear better because there's already that distress built-in.  

Sometimes a house is distressed to the point where banks won't lend so they can only work with cash buyers, throwing realtors in the mix just slows down progress on finding a qualified buyer.The market I invest in is pretty cool, so a house will sell for 60 or 70k, but it will be on the market for 6 months.  

I will be searching for people to help by buying and wholesaling distressed homes and helping distressed people.
