Keep watching. I'm doing the same in several markets waiting for the most distressed to start moving. Even if it doesn't happen, the cost is low versus the reward of a deal. I'm even reaching out directly to AirBnB hosts to offer my info when they're ready to do a transaction.
Haven’t made a lot of calls, but have had enough folks say yes it’s worth my time to continue outreach based on data mining.
I have a fairly mature financing operation from collateral I’ve grown over a decade and cash on hand, so I can move quick (48hr closing). I also make it worth the seller’s time with a shared equity model. I lock in my gain, they get a share of any upside in the future.
Less “We buy houses!” and more “you need a business partner with deeper pockets”.
