Purchasing a MultiFamily Not For Sale

[Joseph Romano]

On my drive to work I see this multifamily property that is super run down but in a great location. Unfortunately it’s just not for sale.

How do I find out who the owner is and how what would I say to him/her?

Every county has public tax records. Google "county name"  county real estate tax or ownership and it should be one of the first links. It may take some clicking around but then you will input the address and the owners name or entity should pop up as well as an address. Mail them some letters or do some detective work and find a phone number. If you aren't aware of this tool I would imagine you do not have extensive real estate knowledge or experience (which is completely oaky!) so I would stay away from a run down multi-family at the moment. If you really want to pursue, once you get a hold of the owner. Let him know you are an investor and would like to buy his property! Best of luck!
