@David Muscovalley,

Motivation stacks.  If you get a list of out-of-state owners, or tax delinquent owners, or whatever else might be one motivation to selling, stack it.  For example, out-of-state owners might be interested in selling, or they might not be.  It's truly a hit or miss, and usually a miss.  But, if you go looking at these houses by D4D, and find the ones that are in distress and/or unoccupied, then you're finding the sellers who have stacked motivations.  The odds of them selling is going to increase with the more situations they might be facing.
