The cringy introvert one is embarrassing, do you not grasp you're out of touch? 

Not possible.The only way to reliably get in touch with motivated sellers is for you to make it easy for them to find you.Get a solid website, work on the 3 pillars of conversions:1.

You have your screening criteria for a reason.If it works, and this person meets your criteria, move forward.If they don't meet the criteria, on to the next.A few folks here have already touched on this: keep in mind the implications behind early termination of the lease and how to reimburse money if it's required.

If we take the minimum for credit, it will be $100 instead of $2,000 or less.We have stock portfolio that we don't want to touch for the rehab around $200,000 that is liquid upon selling. 

If there are other implications beyond what you're saying here, and absolutely have to get in touch and/or get money (security deposits, etc.)...there's always private investigators.

Thanks for your reply, will keep in touch.

Additionally, if there is anyone in or around Minnesota that has any state specific advice or contacts, I would love to get in touch to expand my network. 

I know it'll take more than 1 postcard sent out or one call made and I know I need to make multiple "touches" over a month or two to truly get engagement.

You shouldn't touch a Baltimore neighborhood under $200k unless you are a very experienced landlord with class c/d properties.

I'm not sure where to start but I may be in touch once I figure it out, haha.
