These properties were not distressed quite the opposite.. but they had 100k to 3 to 5 million of standing Timber on them that if we could purchase our Timber deed we could turn those trees to cash within 90 days..PS I had created a hand made custom data base of properties  10 acres or more not corporately owned that Aerial Photogramy show Standing Timber of an Age we deemed Merchantable. 

I actually wrote my own Excel Macros to download the data daily and record the net price versus offer and original list price and further broke down this data based on DOM.  

We have a data base of about 14k and recently engaged a data co to comb through and get better phone/emails as some of the entries may be on the dnc now and some still have aol lol.

We have a Real Estate company and we accept assigned contracts from them ... they have a data base more active than clicks on Zillow....

If you are going to outsource cold-calling you need to pay attention to the DNC list and make sure your database is run through there as there are going to be crackdowns on this even more coming soon.

You can list your property at the local Housing Authority and I think some have an online database of rentals, but we've never used that. 

. # of: calls made, conversations, contacts added to their database/crm, appointments set, appointments met, offers sent, and anything else you can think of.

It looks like a database for deed transfers.

You can also find a helpful realtor to research the data through the mls or a public records database.

I would not put those in the same database.
