walking 100 units before purchase

[Dillyn Davidson Saurdiff]

I am going to start searching for my first home soon. I will be looking for a 3-4plex to house hack with an FHA loan. I have an agent who is awesome and willing to help me. I want to start looking at units before I am completely ready to buy, and would like to look at 1000 units to really get a good feel of the market. How to I justify and sell my agent on showing me 1000 units before she gets her commission?...Ok, it probably won't be a 1000 units but I'd like to look at a lot. She has shown me several already and some times I feel bad asking her to show me so many knowing it will be a while before I can buy or before I choose the perfect one.

Also, I will be looking at off market deals....can you get a very good feel for a place when it is full of tenants....and is it hard viewing a full home, when you have intentions of kicking them all out when I purchase it?

Thanks BP look forward to your thoughts.
