MLS Leads

Folks,

I have access to the MLS and believe this could be a valuable source to find motivated sellers.

I've searched for listings that are over 90 days old with keywords such as "handyman", "as-is", etc. This yields some useful results but I'm looking for even more crafty ways to filter for the really motivated sellers.  Another filter I think might make sense is to find homes that went from pending to available again. I'm thinking these folks would be extra motivated since their closing fell through.

What are search criteria that you've used to yield motivated sellers using the MLS?

You might add in "estate sale", "moving", "probate", "out of state".
