Analyzing MulitFamily Properties

[Kristian Demian]

Hey everyone!

This is probably an embarrassingly “newb”ish type of question, but I’m just starting my journey towards making my first investment in real estate. I’m going the house hack route trying to find a multifamily unit in the Seattle area.

I’m JUST starting out so I’m on websites like RedFin and Realtor.com looking for properties to analyze. One thing that I’ve noticed is that most multifamily properties on these websites show 0 bed 0 bath, and do not mention how many separate units there are.

My question is: where/how do you determine this information short of calling/emailing the agent?

This is my 1st post on BP so please take it easy on me and THANK YOU in advance for the info. I’m looking forward to becoming a much more active participant in this community and to learning from you all.

Thanks!!

KD

Try and get more info on Zillow or Trulia. Do a google maps search and zoom in to street view and take a look yourself. 

You probably better off letting a broker find something for you. You have nothing to lose. The seller pays the cooperating buyer agent the commission.
