With Twitter, Myspace and numerous other social networking sites all the rage, and the economic downturn forcing creative marketing methods, it is just a matter of time before online real estate sites like TweetLister and Zillow become the norm.   

Take Zillow for example, this site is a one-stop shop for everything real estate.  This site boasts over 3 million real estate listings, and combines the success of Craigslist, Wikipedia and MySpace all into one.   Shopping for real estate online has become as easy as 1-2-3 and successful real estate investors are using it to their advantage.  Are you?

Another example of a site that really works for many people is Craigslist.  You can find properties for sale, rent, swap and more.  You can even search for people looking for homes with their “wanted” ads.  Keep in mind however, that because Craigslist is free, it is also widely used by scam artists so practicing due diligence is a must.  If you know how to use it wisely, you can find some great deals to make money right away.

If you are just starting out investing in real estate but have not yet purchased your first property, you should at the very least, take advantage of MySpace, Twitter, Facebook and every other online network marketing site out there.  Make friends, network with other investors and get the inside scoop from people already in the business.  The more contacts you make early in the game, the more opportunities you will have later on.
