Where can I find repo's in my area without paying a membership for them?

I am interested in flipping houses and I have been looking on the internet for repos and can only find those sites that ask for $39.00 to join. There has got to be some other way of finding them. We have an agent that is finding low cost houses but would much rather look into repos. Any help? Thanks

Answer:
If you have the right agent, why does your agent not subscribe? If it's a part of their regular business, $39.00 is nothing.

If you have said something to them about foreclosures, and they haven't subscribed, get another agent. One that is not playing at being an agent.
Paying the fee is cheaper than paying full price. If you're that big of a tightwad, you probably won't be paying for necessary repairs that come with owning a home, so save yourself the hassle.
I would check with all of your local banks and credit unions. Also HUD (Housing and Urban Delvelopment is a good source as well.
There is a Site that will give you unlimited access for free for

7 days. Try this Site: http://www.realmoneyideas.com Go to

the "Real Estate" page to find it.

On the same page are Ideas on what to look for when buying

a home, including a free "Checklist" of what to look for on the

inside and the outside of a home.

When looking for a home print out that list so you can

evaluate the home.
Also check with your county government. Most forclosures are listed at the county courthouse.

For my county, the listings are on the county sherrifs website.

Good Luck! Make sure you are aware of the laws in your state and what it takes to get someone out of the building if they are still occupied when you buy the place.
