Knocking on neighbors door
Hello all!
I am trying to get an intimate idea of what the neighborhood of a potential 4 plex I want to by is like. I plan to talk to the neighbors this weekend with my brother by either approaching them if they're doing something outside or knocking on their doors. This will be my first time doing this and it'll be my first property. I know I'll forget to ask some good questions so I want to make sure I have a comprehensive list of questions to ask. Any ideas on well worded, leading questions to ask about the neighborhood, the people in the area, the local economy, themselves, etc.? And also, are there any etiquette tips that I may not be aware of for these kinds of situations? I'd appreciate any input.
