I bought a Zone A house at auction last year and everyone said I was wrong, or the value was not there.  

Getting title and getting clean title for properties bought at tax auctions are two different things. 

I think Hubzu is better than Xome, Foreclosures dot com, and Auction dot com, but they could all be daisy chaining each other. 

Here are some other strategies:Investor Networks: Share through local REI groups or investor meetups in Colorado and Ohio.Direct Outreach: Use mailing lists or email campaigns targeting known investors or real estate firms.Social Media: Post in real estate forums or Facebook groups for investors.Websites for Property ListingsRoofstock: Specializes in selling single-family rental properties to investors, offering built-in tools for analysis.BiggerPockets Marketplace: A hub for active real estate investors, perfect for promoting rental properties.Auction.com: If you’re open to auctioning properties, this platform reaches a broad investor audience.RealtyMogul: Offers connections to individual and institutional investors, especially for multifamily properties.MyHouseDeals: Focused on connecting with investors looking for fix-and-flip or rental properties.Zillow Rental Manager: While more general, it can still attract landlords looking to expand portfolios.Mashvisor: A great platform to market properties with detailed cash flow and rental projections.PropertyShark: Targets real estate professionals and investors with access to detailed property data.These can help you reach a broader audience and possibly sell faster.

That's fun - two first time posters singing the praises of this program One of which, Nick, works for the company based on his LinkedIn profile. 

I've regularly attended the auction in Brooklyn, but never bidded on anything.

Louis, Memphis, and Birmingham offer a good balance of affordability and rental demand, while online platforms, auctions, and networking with local agents can help you find undervalued properties.

Just like going to an auction where lots of people are bidding and there is a frenzied atmosphere... and you want to be a part of the action...you bid too, is not a good (controlled) way to spend your money.  

I think one thing people need to understand is in the US the ten-year treasury is competing against the mortgage-backed securities and while the ten-year is impacted by interest rates, its not the only factor and amount of spending we do also impacts it.they auctioned off 30-year today and it went really bad as no one wants our long-term debt and it sold for 4.3%10-year notes recently traded for 3.96% but again very weak demand - which I believe means yield prices may continue to move up, which means interest rates are not going down dramatically anytime soon - so that fed 25 or 50bps drop is not going to have your mortgage lender dropping rates suddenly the next day...Now the spread between the 10 yr and 30yr mortgages historically is closer to 1.75 but recently has been between 2-3% due to yield curve.

I have taken courses on buying tax defaulted deeds at auction so my plans are to buy 40, 50 60 cents on the dollar.
