Input plz open to feedback from expierence

Looking for some feedback from folks who work foreclosure / auction deals.

I pulled a live sheriff-sale list (26 properties) and broke it down by actual auction date, with the first 8 scheduled for auction tomorrow at 2:00 PM. These are post-judgment, auction-stage foreclosures, so I’m treating this strictly as a bird-dog / referral play, not assignments or owner-negotiated wholesales.

I organized the data into a clean CSV / Google Sheet (addresses, sale dates, case info, plaintiffs/defendants) so it’s timestamped and easy to track, and I’m releasing the list in controlled batches to foreclosure/auction buyers only.

I also pulled high-level comp context (price bands, not addresses) to give buyers an idea of neighborhood resale support, knowing most auction buyers are cold-bidding without interior access.

Fees are structured as a standard finder’s fee on any deal that closes (including auction wins or pre-auction resolutions), with an emphasis on fast execution since timelines are compressed at this stage.

For those of you who’ve done this at scale:

– Is this the right way to position auction-stage lists?

– Anything you’d add or change in how you release or price this info?

– Any pitfalls you’ve run into working sheriff-sale intel as a bird-dog?

Appreciate any real-world input.
