I've been doing a lot of reading on this site and many other trying to figure out where to start.

I've been lurking around the blogs and forums for a while, and have read the getting started guide, and several dozen of the blogs on this site.

As for pre foreclosures, there are an abundance of sites you can join to get that information, like Zillow, Trulia, Redfin, etc.

You are right, this site is amazing!

It is a great site.

It is wonderful to read how we all help each other in this site, I just love it, have a great day everyone.

These will include Realtor sales as well as FSBO sales, which sometimes are not on the commercial sites or weeded off sometimes for low prices that they feel are not valid sales.But to echo the other answers that you received here on BP, if there are no sales, that is a cautionary flag that maybe this in not the area to invest.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the site and getting serious about making my first move in real estate soon.

Yeah, the BP engine mangles some parts of the link, so google search for this:site: biggerpockets.com/forums fractured condoBut take away the space between "site:" and the letter "b".

Hello everyone, I stumbled upon this site through google and I am glad that I did.
