You meet an attorney, ask if they ever handle real estate closings, or estate sales.

I'm interested in your input regarding areas with higher levels of real estate activity now or in the future, or areas that are conducive in general for real estate sales agents to focus on. 

Grab pics of a house for sale from Zillow, and use a title for your ad like "MUST SELL - Investor Special!!!

2) What if I've moved into in this house as my primary residence for 2 years (kids will both be in college) before the renovation and sale?

My initial research has been into - kane county foreclosure sales- researching liens online - practicing the 70% rule on the list of 2016 past and future foreclosures to see which properties sell for at or below max offer amounts and to see if i can tell what indicators set these appart from those that sell at foreclosure beyond the 70% rule amounts?

Happy to dig up sales comps or some other data if you wish.

I would not recommend it without serious experience in real estate or sales.

You should try and whole sale the property!

Which are the best property websites that allow private home sellers to advertise a property for sale?

Also, what language do you use in a sale that gets the same message along... that the seller wants to make it clear that he just doesn't want to make any unnecessary repairs or give credits for obvious upgrades?
