Whichever method of lead generation you decide on, aim to establish and maintain a relationship with prospective sellers. 

I also would like to get into the BRRRR method.

Give me the horse and buggy vs a self driving car with immature software and sensors any day.My point is you should use as much technology as you can to make your life easier without going beyond its limits, and in the meantime always be on the lookout for new solutions that solve problems without creating new ones.
