Houston BRRRR-ers - any success with finding properties?

Good afternoon fellow investors,

With Brandon Turner's faith in and success with the BRRRR strategy, I'm quite sure I am one of many in the Houston area considering taking the same approach to acquiring more properties. However, being willing to try it and being ABLE to pull it off are different. My main question is this - for those who have SUCCESSFULLY done so, how did you find your deal?

I certainly do not expect people to share the name or their wholesaler, but I would like to know where to focus my energy and time. 

*Did you meet your wholesaler at a networking event?

*Did you find your properties on Craigslist?

*Did you drive for dollars?

*Did you find your deal on the MLS?

*Did you do your own direct marketing? (I REALLY do not want to do this)

Like many of you, I get tons of emails everyday containing properties with over-inflated ARVs and underestimated rehab budgets that come nowhere near the ideal numbers for BRRRR. So, if majority of people did not come across their properties until getting out there and networking regularly, then I'll up my efforts to attend networking events. I just want to narrow down my approach and get moving in getting more properties!

Thanking everyone in advance for their responses! I so appreciate the BP community.
