I'm looking for good deals in midwestern and southern markets right now to add to my portfolio.One last bit- lenders are not at all keen on financing rental property purchases right now.

I can't do it because just like you said, I'd be throwing away money :) The reason I keep going bad to the darn mailers which BTW, I have never been keen on direct mail, is because I read and hear it's the quickest way to get a pipeline going.
