Using wholesaler to find BRRRR property

I know many of you find your properties using yellow letters, driving for dollars, and various other strategies. Unfortunately, I work a very demanding, 6-day/week full time job, which doesn't leave me with much free time to execute many of these worthwhile strategies. I currently own 2 duplexes, which I purchased fairly "turnkey" to generate some cash flow. Unfortunately, I am not able to refinance these to pull cash out as they were purchased at or near market value. I would like my third deal to be a distressed property that I can BRRRR. In your experience, does using a wholesaler leave enough margin on the table to successfully BRRRR a property, or am I honestly much better off finding my own deal?

 I usually like to just give them a ring but often times ill follow the phone call up with a yellow letter or postcard if i cant get them on the phone. Hope this helps! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. Also I have had great success with using listsource.com and then having yellowletters.com send out my mailers both companies do great work check them out! 

 So, I'm curious.....do you do this yourself, or are you speaking abstractly, as in "this is what my company will do for you" ? In other words, have you done deals yourself this way, or are you simply pitching your product? A little of both? The first line of your profile states "Let's talk Lead Generation"

Your web site boldly declares "Ditch Direct Mail, Let us Call your list". So it seems just a little odd that you would also be pitching a mail house and list builder. Are you an affiliate for either company mentioned above? You seem like a really nice guy, but so many of your posts are shout outs that I just have to ask.
