How do I generate AO leads from Public Records Online?

[Rachel Atim]

Hello, 

I am completely fresh in this industry and would like to go about making my first flip. As it goes there are so many softwares to generate leads, most of which (all of which) I cannot afford at the moment.

I have read up on accessing Public Records. However, this method is usually and simply mentioned and not broken down... what do I search on the public records.. how exactly do I find the inventory. are there document name abbreviations that I need to learn?

All positive and productive advice welcome!
