You don't get deals.  You make deals.  We have heard this over and over again.  I can tell you from personal experience this is absolutely true.  If finding a deal means getting a listing from the MLS and paying close to the price they are asking then it may be a slow road.  Deals come in all shapes and sizes and most of the time deals come after a lot of hard work.

So how do you find deals?  That gets back to what you like to do and what you are looking for.  Some people want to build a relationship with REO agents and get fed that way.  Others like to hang bandit signs, direct mail, advertise in the newspaper, and many other places.  What is going to be your road to riches?
