Craigslist.com
Craigslist is potentially the best
place to find great deals on real estate, since many of the listing
are 'For Sale By Owner' and it has such a large user base. To search
craigslist for properties, simple go to craigslist.com, select your
state and area, and click on 'real estate for sale' under the housing
section. You can search by price, by number of bedrooms/bathroom,
and/or by keywords like 'fixer' 'must sell' 'reduced' etc...

and Zillow.com
It used to be that only Realtors could search for houses on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service). These days, anyone with the internet can do it, although some of the information is kept private, such as the sellers name and phone number, etc...Realtor.com and Trulia.com both pull their listings from the MLS, and allow you to create customized searches to help you narrow down the search.
LandAndFarm.com
This is a great site I stumbled upon
several year back. I'm found it particularly useful for finding cheap
homes with lots of acreage, or just cheap acreage without homes. It
also features map searches and customizable searches. The properties
for sale are a mix of both Realtor listings and 'for sale by owners'One more thought
There is another way to find great
properties at great prices, without even using the internet of
checking the classified ads. Check out this short article for more
