What search engines or websites do you use to find new markets?

[Zachary Zaremba]

Hi there,

I often post for sale by owner properties on sites such as Craigslist, Loopnet, Zillow, Trulia, and other big names. I also find new properties through these sites.

For out of state investors, how do you discover new markets? How do you stumble upon a random town or city that you know has a strong market for buy and holds, for example?

Also, if anyone knows of a RE search engine that allows you to search by cap rate, NOI or another metric, other than by location, please share.

Thanks!
