What Are Your Three Favorite Methods To Find Deals?

[Tim Porsche]

Hi All, I am going to start looking for my first fix and flip deal within the next month. I have purchased and manage three rental properties, but have never done a fix and flip before. It seems like the most crucial element to have success with it is to first find a great deal. 

So my question is, for those of you who have done and are actively doing fix and flip projects, what are your top three favorite methods to find great deals? Where would you recommend a newbie flipper spend the most time trying to find a deal? 

Thanks in advance for any advice :)
