I am a long time residential investor transitioning to commercial real estate.

Purchase price: $645,000 Cash invested: $1,000,000 Purchased 11k sq ft historic funeral home which had been partially converted to a strictly residential property by former owners.Reconfiguring property interior to hold 13 apartments (8x studios, 4x 1 BR, 1x 2 BR) and retail space for a restaurant, coffee shop, wine bar, etc.

Hi everyone, im very familiar with finding the arv of residential properties based on comps.

The lot is just inside the border of an area recently up-zoned to Residential Small Lot (no minimum lot size, 1 DU per 2k sqft).

While I’m in the real estate business as a residential agent, I feel a bit like a fish out of water with multi-family.The main question I have at this point is this: what documents should I be getting from the seller that pertain to the property during this DD period?

Once to get to five units, the lending goes from residential to commercial, and it's just not really possible to do a house hack.If you don't want to waste time, connect with a lender ASAP.

I am wanting to know about investing in residential plots.

I know of a specialty lender for Residential/Habitational properties.  

He works both commercial as well as residential sides and has many investor clients.

Look for Eli Skinner Realty team.
