If you want to buy an off market property, I would suggest making yourself known to the agents in the area that you want to buy. Also, you could send out yellow letters. But I would use the networking approach first. It doesn't cost you anything to introduce yourself to people.

Thank you so much for your response, very informative. I recently got my NY real estate license, but I work only with rentals, because that's how new agents start in the city. However I will definitely start networking with RE agents outside the city for this purpose.

Thank you for your response, but Im more concerned in understand how "off market" properties work. 

 You find out who the owner is and make an offer. Either they sell it or they do not. What else are you concerned about?

Yes, I understood that. I just want to know how I find the property in the first place. How do I know that will be on sale?

Send "yellow" letters to addresses you have identified as an interest to you. Check out my recent forum post - I asked the same question and got some helpful responses! :)

 Thank you! I will take a look on your post.

Hello all,

I just started considering real estate investment (rental income) as my future. I have a question that might sound pretty simple for most of you here. Yesterday I was watching "Flip or Flop" and they were interested in purchasing (all cash) a property that was "off market" before it go to the public sale on the next day. How does that work? Where/Who has access to "off market" properties? Are they always cash transactions? 

Thank you already for any answer!
