Off market strategy books
Can you guys offer some good books for finding off market single family homes. As a first time buyer I don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket with a broker, although I’m certain they are trying their best and will eventually find a property. I’d just like to beat all the bushes I can. At this point I’m just driving for dollars and sending letters. I’d love any book recommendations for more ideas. Thanks everyone in advance.

In my opinion, you also need some hand on experience without taking huge risk. Try asking a local off market Realtor or flippers for mentorship and shadow them few hours a week.
