Tips on finding off market apartments
As a real estate agent specializing in off-market properties and currently tasked with sourcing apartments for a prospective buyer, I'm seeking guidance on effective outreach strategies. What pertinent questions should I pose to property owners when initiating contact? Additionally, I aim to refine my approach to financial analysis by adopting a structured formula for calculating investment metrics tailored to my investors' needs. Any insights or advice you could offer in these areas would be invaluable. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Cold calling owners. Ask them if they're open to selling. If not, hang up and move on to the next one.
