Newbie Investor - Finding Deals

Hi everyone - I have been diving in deep with the podcast, BP books and resources over the last couple of months. The strategies that feel like the best fit for me to begin investing are small, multi-family BRRRR and maybe some SFH flips. I've heard about the value of direct marketing to find deals but I'm curious what other tangible ways you find deals in the market. I'm a huge fan of Brandon and his lessons on low to no money down because I don't have savings built up yet. So, where are the safe deals to explore beyond contacting landlords directly? Wholesale? Foreclosures? Are Foreclosures too risky? I live in the Tampa/St. Pete area and our market has been booming for years now. I'm struggling to find affordable deals but admittedly, understanding deal-finding is not my strong suit right now.
