What's the best place to look for repossessions in the UK?

I am looking for repossessions in the UK and have checked some websites for these, they don't seem that much cheaper than normal house prices IMO and the deal isn't that great, I assume it's because very few houses go repossessed these days.

Or would you recommend going to an estate agents? Where are you most likely to find a good deal? I will also look into creative financing to buy the house as soon as possible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_financing

Thanks to low interest rates repo's seem to be virtually non-existent at the moment and, as you say, auction guide prices/reserves seem to be little different from open market prices anyway.0
