What is the very next step once you find a property?

[Shayna Burns]

How are you all? I'm new to BiggerPockets, and at the very beginning stages of Real Estate Investing, I'm currently just educating myself on everything, my interest is in Multifamily Properties. Everything I've read talks about the documents I need in order to properly analyze a property, and most of those request would be made in the LOI, so my question is in the very beginning once I find a property that I'm interested in, then what? Do I contact the broker online and send my request for the additional information I need in order to analyze the property? How do I initially make contact, and what am I asking for the very first time I contact the seller or broker about the property. For example right now I'm trying to practice analyzing properties, but I'm not sure how to do that without the information that's required. Thank you so much for any and all information, all information is greatly appreciated.
