I will also purchase some more generic mail pieces and drive for dollars in my area.

These people have not paid taxes and the property will eventually go to some sort of tax sale if not paid off.Vacant/Abandoned (Driving for dollars) You'll likely have to skip trace the owner to try to contact them.

Personally I prefer literally walking vs. driving, but my areas of interest are more urban. 

@Alisha Decoteau I would start by walking and driving the neighborhoods at different times of the day.

I soon made it a habit of listening to the BP podcasts while driving to and from my full-time job over the past few weeks.  

What i feel deep down in my heart and what i have a passion for is fix and flipping.

@Kirk OlsonWhat's driving the LTL, is it that units need updating?  

That will largely drive away a certain type of clientele.  

So you'll hopefully be making serious monthly cashflow, you won't have capital expenses because of the NNN lease, and you'll be guaranteed a $50K increase when John exercises the option at the end of the 5 year purchase option.Without going too deep into the details, I think you've landed a winner.

I would like to drive by the property, at least in the beginning.
