What are the best ways to find deals starting off?

[Sheldon Alex]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to real estate, and so have no agent or broker connections yet in my area. As I work on developing those, I was looking for properties through the newspaper (let me know if that's one way to find deals).

Now for someone like me starting off, what are some ways I can start looking for some deals? Any suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you @Walther Arias I look forward to being a part of this exciting business, and thanks for the tips. 

@Ned Carey thank you for these tips. I wanted to ask though if there was a place I can go in order to find properties that fit into any of these circumstances you listed. Please let me know. Thanks again.
