Hi There, would anyone be able to recommend a loan officer for a  multi unit (6 duplexes - 12 unit) property that has an approx tax value of $480K. 

I'd start by reading something like this - http://www.bizfilings.com/toolkit/news/tax-info/ll...and then go on to discuss the situational details with my accountant and/or attorney.

Investment 60,000Monthly rent 1050.HOA: 300Monthly Tax: 100Monthly Insurance: 20P&I:245Maintenance(10): 105Still 280 Left

I'm wondering what the value comparison is for this 3 unit multifamily is...Say we have 2 building for sale that are identical. both are 3 story (1 unit on each floor) buildingsBuilding A is just a multifamily building sold together as an apartment (for rentals)Building B is comprised of three separately taxed and parceled units.

Research the property tax records and find out the address that the city sends it tax due bills to for payment.

House hacking is also an awesome strategy in CA because you get to lock in low property tax rates and it is relatively easy to cash out the equity you build in a primary residence and use it to leverage your next property.  

It's far better to look for other triggers like foreclosure and defaulted taxes where the motivation is much clearer to all parties. 

Of course that doesn't figure in taxes, ins, et. al.

I only do buy and holds for rentals as I don't like the tax ramifications of flips.

What are the property taxes and insurance?
