Businesses Closing

Hi guys I was wondering if anybody would know anyway to check for local businesses closing their doors?

I live close to a city called Des Moines IA.

City Counsels in some places are very transparent. I generally track trends in sale tax revenue but such things are never in real time. Traffic surveys ect…

Thats a good idea, I may check next time I am Des Moines for the counsels for the different regions in the city.

Shrugs ? Small town and I drink with the city counsel :)~ City Clerk ect… Business license renewals

Well Des Moines may be a small town compared to Chicago but its the capital city of Iowa. I work on the west side of town in a consulting business and am on the look out for some business closing down so I could pick up a high end business desk chair and other stuff.

lol… going macro to go micro…

well thats the end goal essentially, I want to find a business moving or closing down with high end executive stuff and I will be the guy on the front door with 50 in cash to take their stuff off their hands.

foreclosures/tax sales/estate sales

I heard its possible to get some good stuff at University / college auctions.

Or just drive around businesses / schools on garbage collection day.
