New to flipping in Houston

I live in Houston, TX and I am new to flipping. I renovated and sold two homes which I lived in each for several years but I now want to get started in flipping as an actual business venture. It was easy to find a house I wanted to renovate and live in because I didn't have to factor in the closing costs at resale when I was making a decision but now that I want to do this for a profit I have not been able to find a property on the MLS that is priced low enough to make sense for a flip. Do I have to go to auctions and wholesale? Is there nothing on MLS that would be good for a flip. Where do most flippers find property in Houston? I would appreciate your input. Thanks.
