I'd second @Jeremy Pakalka on that.

Well, you can of course use zillow, because many FSBOs list there and only there, or you can use a service that will also pull their info. For the most part, that service seems worthless to me. I've probably called 15 today from a list an agent at my office gave me (I'm working the realtor angle with ears open for a deal), and 90% of the addresses I searched were also on zillow. 

The best ones I think will be the sign in the yard, and it means one of two things: 1) they're too cheap to pay anything to market and sell a property; or 2) they literally have no money to even post to zillow.

Still, I called on a commercial property yesterday dude is asking 150k and he's stuck on that, terribly unmotivated, and it's probably worth 55k... 

So, needles in a massive haystack.

Best of luck,

JTM
