Mike,I sent a batch of about 2,000 postcards to Absentee Owners in select Denver zip codes w/ over 50% equity, whose homes had not traded for at least three years. 

There wasnt as many codes etc back then so it all boils down to how and who built it.I would suggest you have a reliable home inspector or builder look it over and discuss your renovations with them to get the best feedback.

With two new people partnering together it's like having  dumb and dumber (I know you guys are smart, so that's just an expression) partnering  up so that they can burn two years worth of savings on a corperat divorce (not sure if that is faster and cheaper than a real life divorce, ask my friend that is still trying to divide properties after 3 years, many attorneys and many court hearings for code violations...).  

I have a rough idea of a couple of zip codes I'd like to focus on, but I'm unsure of how to vet them out.

IF you still don't see it, it's possibly you either:- Never bought the "Ultimate Package" of the book OR- You didn't use the bonus code when upgrading to BiggerPockets ProHope that helps!

Hello,My fiancee and I am about 6 weeks from closing on a 2 flat in Chicago (60618 zip code, west of the river, good neighborhood) - One unit is 3 bed / 2 bath and the other is a 2 bed 1 bath.  

For example, my county's website has this posted:"Section 1.10 of the Texas Property Tax Code requires our office to provide electronic files to be made available to the general public.

Hi Martin,We target people with at least 50% equity, homes in zip code areas we like, at least 3 bedrooms, homes under 200k, and we exclude trusts from our lists.  

You need a good amount of blank space on the rear to have your stamp, their mailing address, and a bar code. 

I looked at a mailing list generated for 2 of the zip codes there and was surprised how many homes are owned outright or have been owned by the same person for many years.
