Other than MLS you can market directly to sellers. This can include direct mail, Facebook ads, craigslist, google AdWords, etc. You can also reach out to wholesalers in the areas you are looking. And you can network with people in those areas. Most are time consuming but can be a great way to get an "off market" deal.
