Hello all
I found a potential new construction property in a Lakewood, Tacoma area. Zip 98499.
It's 3 Bedroom 3 Bathroom 1700 sq ft. I have a hard time guessing the rent for this as I didn't find any comparing properties.
I would love your help on following questions:
1.What do homes like these typically rent for in this area?
2. Where do you get the leads from when the property is advertised on craigstlist, zillow and apartments?
I am an investor in Seattle and usually Zillow and Craigslist have been super useful to me. Would love to know if it's the same case in Lakewood. Do people usually follow the "For Rent" signs? or will I have to use Property management company to get tenants?
Appreciate your response!

Thank you @Mark Ainley. Yes I observed lot of old houses. I am actually comparing between Chicago and Kansas City. But don't have solid data points. @Patrick Britton It's impressive that you already have 12 doors. I will PM you. Thank you!

Hey All
I am new to the real estate investment game. I live in Seattle. I was thinking to invest in Tacoma Multi-family units (4-Plex), mainly because I think cash flow is better than Seattle multi-plexes (I own a four-plex in Seattle.) However, I have less to no information on where to invest in Tacoma and what are the businesses around which will make the housing market in demand.
A couple of questions here:
1. Can you please recommend few neighborhoods in Tacoma which are good for owning multi-family units?
2. Are you a multi-family unit owner in Tacoma? I would love to connect with you and learn from your experiences.
3. Can you recommend real estate agents who specialize in finding off-market multi-family units in Tacoma?
Thank you in advance!
