General criteria for digging up the right property?

I'm a lead gen master. Seriously. That's been my business for over a decade in all sorts of industries.

But I'm a total noob wholesaler. So I'm kinda stuck at identifying my ideal audience(s) before I can start generating leads for buyers.

I know there are different distressed situations (pre-foreclosure, absentee-owners, landlords, probate, divorce, etc).

But if you were to describe the ideal property owner for each situation, what would it be?

Where's the bread and butter for buyers?

I know it's best to get criteria directly from the buyers. I'll be attending some up-coming events in Austin to connect with them. So in the meantime I'd appreciate your input.

@Guy Collins,

Conventional wisdom is that as a wholesaler you want start by building your buyers list. Find out what their investment criteria are, then you just go out and "fill their orders".

Just think of yourself as an order taker...
