I have a realtor in mind that I want to approach about helping me find specifically off market multi-family property to buy.

Unless I know the history of a specific property and it warrants less, I use 10 for vacancy, 13 for PM, 10 for repairs/maintenance.

A good broker will FaceTime on site or send video walk throughs and will help shepherd the application process through, in addition to having specific local knowledge.FYI streeteasy started charging brokers to list rental last year and so it's not complete, particularly at lower price points.

How can I find as much info as possible in a specific area?

My goal is to move away from the residential side and fully into commercial - specifically multi-use developments and industrial properties in Norfolk and Suffolk counties, preferably. 

You can estimate a specific job, like replacing carpet, or a project, like a bathroom or kitchen rehab.Here is the site.https://www.homewyse.com/services/index.htmlIf it's in the ballpark, then it seems like it could be a useful tool as you're getting started and looking to run numbers to make offers before you have a lot of deals and experience under your belt.

I wonder if this is custodian specific or a general IRA rule.

Beyond that, you could look at specialty asset classes, like hotels, medical, senior housing, or student housing.Good luck, and please feel free to get in touch with any specific questions!

I don't know the answers but I do know it's state specific, so for the best answers, what state?

With the inspection contingence is there something specific that has to come up to back out or it can be anything I deem unacceptable?
