Finding properties

Kevin K.

I'm curious what the forum finds to be the most effective means to find their properties. I imagine driving around does well, if not the best.  I get the sense it'd be the best way to find the truly good deals before anyone can see the listing online. 

Whenever I'm searching for properties via Redfin / Trulia / Zillow, I never know how accurate the sites are and tend to think if a house has been sitting up there for a few months, it must not be a good deal.  Would anyone agree with that?
