Sign up for their alert services and you'll get bombarded with emails telling you of new properties that meet your criteria. Also means that you could get a heads up before people who rely on the Saturday paper listings.

Bit of a drag looking for somewhere without a car. They all have open viewings around the same time and you've got to get from A to B in 5 mins.
Maybe rent a car for a few days to help.

Also call the agents and ask all the questions they haven't answered in the ad. Saves wasted effort going to somewhere that definitely isn't right.
