Can't find any deals?

[Daniel H.]

I am looking for another investment property near my current one in Worcester, Massachusetts. I am not finding any deals at all. I had a narrowed down list of about 10 and when I called the listing agents, they were all under contract. That wipes out my whole list of potential properties!

I am looking for 3-family buildings. I search on zillow, redfin, realtor, etc...

Any way to get a jump on other buyers? Ways to find deals?

Even the ones that sell, they aren't really selling for very attractive prices.. I saved up a down payment for a year or two and now I don't see anywhere worth investing it. Frustrating.

Any ideas?
