Owners Hiding Something?

Cameron Kirby
Posted

I found a duplex I am interested in looking at to house hack, and currently there is tenants living in both units. The owner doesn't want to let them know the building is for sale so doesn't want to let me see the inside until it is under contract. Is this normal? Seems like they are trying to hide something? any advice would be great, thanks.

It's not terribly uncommon. You can simply make an offer you think is fair, with an inspection contingency so if, upon your review of the property, there are things that you dont like, you can cancel the contract. Have you inquired about the lease agreements in place? if they are on annual leases you wont ne able to move into the property until one of the leases are over.
