Trying to get Craigslist Rent ads to sell property instead

[Josh Brosius]

I’ve been looking for multi family/ duplexes in my area for awhile. Anytime something comes up the offers come flying in from this competitive market. I heard on a Bigger Pockets Podcast that another way to look for multi family is to look on Craigslist and see who is renting out. Ask them if they would be willing to sell the property out of hopes they are sick of trying to get renters. I thought it was a good idea but my question is how would I word the question to someone. Asking if they would rather sell the property rather then rent it out. Thanks for the help BP community.
