I'm still compiling my findings and researching markets.

Not sure if there are any sites that can compile lots of data for any zip code/city, etc.

My company compiles data in the many markets where we manage vacation rentals, so can help you hone in on those markets where you can afford to buy and also see strong rental income.

So far Mint has been a great resource for compiling all of my transactions together, cash flow, and tracking overall net worth.

It adds a few good ideas:- Compile of list of suitable businesses in slightly dumpier or more expensive buildings, research them, and call them and try to convince them to lease from you.- Direct mail to suitable businesses nearby- See if your area requires a public notice for fictitious business names and mail the owner addressCan you guys come up with anything else?

When you have a compiled list of all losses, I would submit it to a collection agency I use that reports to all 3 credit bureaus.
