This is the approach I've taken after making one of my first mistakes early on in my investing career, and it's the same methodology we employ with all our investor clients.Good luck!

Anyone else have any other methodology or source? 

So our goal is to acquire the home/office addresses for owners of facilities in order to insure they see our mailers.My methodology so far has been to go county by county, identify all self storage facilities on Google Maps (double-checking with our database to make sure I don't miss any not on Google,) and entering the addresses into a tax parcel GIS unique to the county.

and sometimes I'm not the most practical person in my methodology.  

I employ the same methodology.

So, when I finally decided to quit my career and start my own real estate investment company, I had all of these...mechanisms and methodologies...engrained in my head as the right way to approach any problem - PARTICULARLY, the right way to run a company (and I still believe this is true).So, through my real estate journey, I have noticed that most (not all) real estate investors don't really like to, nor see the need to, approach investing from a bigger picture.

BTW:  Much of what you read about wholesaling methodologies in the U.S.A.- even here on BP - is not legal either.  

Getting Things Done (GTD) revolves around the concept of getting things out of your head (as simple or as complicated as they may be) and getting them into a trusted system.It allows your life to become simple.It clears up the psychic clutter in your head.There are 5 parts to it.1.Capture2.Clarify3.Organize4.Reflect5.EngageCapture everything on paper and into your system.Capture your to-dos, your ideas, your tasks.Put them into your system.Easy-peasy.Clarify what you need to do.Break it down into simple actionable steps, so there’s no barrier to you just doing it.If you can delegate it, pass it off.Organize what you can into your calendar.This gives everything a due date and holds you accountable to getting that thing done on that day.Calendar is your sacred territory.Reflect on your list as needed.If something is vague, clarify it.If something doesn’t make sense for you anymore, take it off the list.Determine if and where your priorities need to change.Engage and get to work.Do your next action, for it is all you can do.By this point, if your system is done, the next action for you will be easy.You won’t have to dedicate any more brainpower to thinking about it.

. $5K spend and they wanted it all torn down.Bottom line... while the city inspectors and their methodology are often all screwed up and while of course you are happier to hear the opinion of your handyman...he can not drag you to court and issue you fines and condemn your building and so on.
