Echoing what @Andrew Beauchemin said, you can find out owners of buildings by looking at property tax records on your county's appraisal site. if the owner is a LLC (which is usually the case for larger multifamily), go to your state's secretary of state website and look up the business in the business records search. i'm not familiar with pennsylvania, but that's how every state I've looked at before operates. there is usually an agent of record who oftentimes is the owner, however, for a larger, more sophisticated owner, it could easily be a lawyer or someone else.if that fails, a broker is your best bet. they'll have the relationships with owners and other brokers you need. as others have said, it's hard to go off-market without a track record, but maybe by showing your current portfolio and explaining your desires, you may win someone over :)
