I am also a little iffy on the report, maybe old data was used.

In doing wholesales I've realized that I am good at finding leads, and really enjoy doing it especially getting out and driving around, but I am very disorganized and almost overwhelm myself with data etc.A very good friend of mine has taken an interest in what I am doing.

I have a feeling (and some data) that suggests the market is going to loosen up a good bit in the next couple months and banks are going to start releasing a good bit of inventory -- if that influx of properties materializes, I want to be prepared to take advantage of it.

Vet them like you would any other deal. they likely arnt as good of a deal as you think they are if you look at the local data. 

Hi,I am new to Bigger Pockets, but have been following material on Youtube mostly. I don't live in the US, rather in Asia. We don't have the level of online information when researching asset classes or locations. So ...

This data is all available through the U.S.

Another source is using a list service such as Agentpro247 however the lists generated by these services may be out of date so your may want to avoid telling the owner "your taxes are delinquent" as they may have actually paid them since the list data was last updated. 

Thanks for sharing that data point.

There are plenty of reports on census data, business blog articles, and top 10 rankings showing which cities people are moving to and which ones are growing the fastest.  

However, I have been seeing trends in what I called a slow down, then a correction, then recession...and I listened to a podcast today from a woman and man who I think are the brightest minds in reading the REAL data in real estate and they shook my tree.https://www.realwealthnetwork.com/learn/real-wealt...
