Where to find out of state Multi-Family property owners?

[Jason Conroy]

I occasionally hear on the podcast about people getting a list of out-of-state real estate owners but it refers to SFR owners. Where could I find (most likely buy) a list of out-out-state owners of Multi-Family properties in my area?

Thanks!

In my county you can do the following.

Download the entire parcel list
Sort entire parcel list by property type
Delete everything except for the multifamily types (i.e. Duplex,Triplex,Apartment Building, etc)
Now you have a list of all of the multifamily units
Now you have to sort by owner address
Delete every record with an owner address in your state. Everything that remains is absentee-owned multifamily units.

If you can't find this list online, then you can definitely go down to the county and talk to people and they'll be able to get you a list.
