How to ask if they are selling

[Benjamin Eccles]

So I have a question that I couldn't really find on the forums so I decided I'd start a new thread. What are the tips and tricks for asking individual owners if they are interested in selling. I have my eye on a few different properties and I know who the owner is so I just need to know the correct way to ask. I understand this probably differs for every situation but any general advice would be really helpful! If it matters, the properties I'm looking at are located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin!
