I know a lot of people that do this in my area and they get the good deals..I know a lot of it is experience but I am needing some info. I have trulia downloaded and check craigslist and other obvious avenues. Thank you for any input.

@Zach H.  there are a ton of ways to find deals. There are lots of threads here so do a search. I believe there is a blog post of 101 ways to find deals (something like that)

Here are a few

  • pre foreclosure 
  • foreclosure auction
  • REO
  • Vacant houses
  • Tax default properties
  • estates
  • code violations
  • direct mail

Good luck - Ned
