Finding the correct contact info is hard enough, but if your pitch is that they should sell cheap now, you're misreading the market.Multifamily properties are worth significantly less now than they were just a few years ago, and asking for a further discount due to property condition would probably result in a loss, maybe not even pay off the debt.

Not sure if OK is most expensive, but it's not cheap. 

I'm a travel nurse that bought a cash property in 2022, spent most of '23 doing Reno and repairs.
