Every property appraiser in every county has a database of every single property in that Is in that county. This is of course so they know who owes them taxes.

Furthermore, they break down the properties by DOR use code (or property use code) so they know exactly what type of property is based on its use code. (Ex: I have 3224 duplexes in my county)

Since the lists are government lists, I have the right to access them. I can further break the lists down in my spread sheets to include owners out of state, oldest sales, etc. once I've done that to build my perfect list, I skip trace the owners and call them and very simply ask them if they want to sell.

I've done hundreds of deals from little duplexes to full size apt complexes this way.

Hope this helps!!

So David, do I just contact an appraiser to obtain the list?

Good evening,

My name is LaTonya Johnson, and I'm new to BP.

I've found some very interesting articles thus far, so it seems like I'm going to become a regular here. Plus, it beats the heck out of Facebook!

I'm currently looking for the following types of apartment complexes:

Class: C+ to C

#of Units: 60-180

Cap Rate: 7%+

Roof: Pitched

Metering: Individual

Value Play

Markets: Texas, Louisiana, TN

I'm always looking for good contacts (attorneys, property managers, inspectors, CPAs, appraisers, etc) , so feel free to share. I have a team, yet as I expand my knowledge base, the knowledge of my team must expand also.

If I can help in any fashion, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Regards,

LaTonya
