@Tee Allen Driving for dollars is an excellent way to create your own targeted marketing list.

Thanks for the reponse Chaz, I would like to be able to mail out 300-500 highly targeted direct mail, not sure if it will bring the desired results.

I am also "listsourcing" some leads to my target group.

We also give them to people in our target neighborhood.  

You can target good geographic areas that match your business model and have some great success with it. 

Maybe do a mailing/telemarketing campaign in your target area.

Anything that is a good deal is gone very quickly and most just don't make sense financially.Pre-foreclosures  may be a better source of deals but that is a highly competitive list to target as well.  

That means you would need to get it under contract for not more than $42k to hit the 70% - rehab target and build in your $2k wholesale fee.That's going to put the property right in the 1% range for a buy & hold, which is the only place I see any real market for this type of property.  

The difference that obtaining a lien makes, (even if you do not intend to foreclose it), is that having a lien on a property targeted for adverse possession provides both a legal justification for paying someone else's property taxes and an arguable claim for recouping the taxes paid -in the event that the adverse possession doesn't work out. 

Mainly because as you mentioned your target tenants are going to be bachelor/ettes with decent jobs, and from first hand experience I feel those type of people aren’t too terribly picky as long as the property is half decent.
