Know Your Search Criteria
- Define your exact property criteria before searching or working with an agent or broker.
- This saves time and aligns your search with what really fits your needs and budget.
Use Online Platforms for Small Properties
- For properties up to four units, use online platforms like Redfin, Zillow, or Realtor.com to find listings.
- Set saved searches with your criteria and get notified when matching properties appear.
Use Commercial Sites for Larger Properties
- For properties with five or more units, look beyond general sites to commercial platforms like LoopNet or CoStar.
- These platforms list multifamily properties that may not appear on Zillow or Redfin.
