when you purchase a property, there are closing costs on top of the purchase price, and closing costs can be substantial - especially if there are points on the loan. 

I’ve isolated these three markets as they’re all within driving distance from my home and seem to fit my budget of $100K-$200K for purchase price.

Assuming you have access to MLS (Multiple Listing Service, a place for agents to list deals).1) Look for deals that look like investor-type of deals (e.g. low purchase price, ugly houses, or sometimes MLS will even say what type of financing it is)2) If the buyer's info is there, voila.  3) Otherwise, contact the realtor to look for leads (that will be more of a uphill battle, but you never know...)
