Out of State Absentee Owner closing process.

Hi everyone I've been wholesaling houses in Savannah, GA with little success. I've only done three deals but I figured it was because of my lack of effort. I was doing too little and expecting too much. But now I'm putting 50 signs a week/200 signs a month .. and I'm sending 20 letters a day to absentee owners because I have a list of 1,269 vacant houses in Savannah that has been abandoned for more than a year. I paid $500  to get all that information from Freedomsoft.

My question is: How is the process when the owner of the house is living out of state not willing to fly across the country to close the deal? Does the paperwork change? is everything through email? More fees? do I need something specific from my attorney? I'm kind of lost.  Thanks in advance.
