Getting motivated seller lists and benefits of MLS access

Hi

I am trying to figure out the best ways to get ahold of pre foreclose lists, vacant property lists, and any other type of motivated seller listings. How do some of you guys get ahold of these?

Also curious about the advantages of being able to use the MLS for investment purposes. I know the MLS gives you more thorough info for MLS properties but what are the other specific advantages? Do you get access to pre foreclosures or any other information not available to others?

I currently have my license but haven't hung it with a broker so am trying to figure out if it is worth it for my purposes to get mls access. I don't really have any interest is being an agent but just to help find rehab deals and realize REOs and SSs on mls aren't to profitable so mainly just want access to off market deals.

Thanks you
