Excellent advice from PerryChase on becoming familiar with the areas you are interested in
When I was shopping for property I had driven the streets so many times that when I was sitting at my computer and received a new listing on Fulton (for example), I didn’t have to drive by it because I already knew that Fulton was a narrow street with cars lining both sides
Developing this level of familiarity with your areas of interest will also help you develop a gut feel for prices/values – you will be able to tell whether something is really a deal or just a pig-with-lipstick parading as a deal
