@Christopher NemlichAside from all the great feedback, I agree that you need to sift through your options with some sort of system.I would connect with local sponsors, as mention by @Brian Burke.Then, I would connect with local brokers to ask for feedback on the buyers.

I look for: -estate type: RE (basically general real estate...you don't want small estates)-Status- OPENOnce you have found the type of estates you are looking for, you really just have to sift through legal documents, which will be take some time to understand, but will be beneficial.

You do want to sift out those with serious problems (to not waste your time and their's) but not also filter out those who could be potentially good tenants.

But there is some good talent on there after you sift through the applicants you get.
