Pick the main city of interest and also research each of the surrounding cities for price comparison.  You can focus on the particular price range.  The links are multiple listing services throughout California.

Research every home in your target neighborhood.

Once you picked the ideal city and narrowed it down to a couple neighborhoods.  Read the listing information on each of the homes.  Some of the houses in your online real estate search will be too expensive or too run down but, you need to know about your future neighborhood. 

 

You will need to check it every day to keep up with the latest listings.  Good properties that are priced right, sell quickly. 

 

Not all properties that are for sale are are shown on the public online search engines.  Your Realtor pays  subscription fees for access to ALL of the "MLS" multiple listing service properties.  

 

Keep in close contact with your agent, they have access to many more houses, including in house listings and pocket listing.  They also occasionally find some For Sale By Owners that will cooperate with agents that bring their own buyers.

 

 

Call your Agent to show you the house

Once you find an interesting house or promising neighborhood call YOUR agent.  You need a professional that will explain all the latest changes in real estate disclosure laws and assist you in picking a reasonable offering price. 

 

Everyone wants to be able to buy their home at a great price... just realize that low-ball offers are a waste of time.  A professionally listed home usually sells within 2% to 3% under or over list price.
