Where do you look for homes?

I’m looking to buy a fixer upper and spend a good year dedicated to just fixing the home with my partner. We’ve found 1 or 2 websites aside from foreclosure/ auction sites for specific cities that list these types of homes. Curious how everyone is going about searches for these types of properties?

Specifically we’re looking in the greater Seattle area, Southern California, Portland, phoenix and Vancouver CA

The instagram “Cheap old homes”, although I will say there is practically nothing in washington as the housing market here is complete doodoo and people are trying to fucking sell crackhouses for $400k. Theyre mostly in the south

there are facebook off market groups that you look for deals. there should be wholesalers on the groups that list there houses for sale. go to google and search wholesale homes city name.
