Don't forget to simply drive around neighborhoods that you're interested in and look for signs. If the home's been foreclosed on and is bank owned, there might be a sign. Banks aren't very good at marketing. We've been searching for about a month now and found this one a few weeks ago. All it had was a little dopey sign in the window. It's been for sale for 4 months but the bank never got around to put it on the MLS. We signed the papers a few days ago. Place was 590K when it was built in winter of '06. We offered 280K. The bank countered at 305K with them paying closing and we jumped on it.
