the same seller has 2 duplexes for sale, each for 120k. I want to get one for around 90k, also will he be more likely to accept my offer if i offer to buy both for 180k total?

You can offer whatever you like. They say that you should feel a little embarrassed when making offers. However make sure you have a reason to back up your offer. Even if that reason is just with the projected cashflow that's all it makes sense for you to pay. I don't think offering to buy both at a discount is a bad approach at all. Seller may take your offer just so they don't have to deal with the hassle anymore.
