@Brad SandBy the way, I was assuming there was a Lender and loan involved, otherwise, You would be the client, and would’ve ordered the appraisal, or maybe your broker/agent would do it on your behalf.

The more properties involved the more complicated the identification process can be, but it is done all the time. 

We find the risk involved is too high to do this.

You can then focus on the little repairs that come up, the ongoing CapEx planning involved in owning apartments, and the monthly cash flow. 

Unless you want to be part of a lawsuit to determine the legalities of this you may prefer to not get involved.  

You do not need a license to be involved and get to know other agents.

Get involved in a local real estate investors group and provide value.

Just got involved with a great mentor who's got us excited about Multi-Family and it opportunity to becoming self-sufficient and attain our goals for the future. 

Notifying in writing the relevant participants in a sale intending to squeeze you out (seller, would-be buyer, any title company considering handling that transfer) as what you intend to file/record and do is the best way to prevent that sale.No title company who receives notice of competing contracts will close with either buyer until the situation is "resolved" ... by resolved I mean the attorney involved will consider all the docs and facts and may decide that closing with either is not worth the risk.It depends upon where you and property are but just as an fyi title companies around here (East coast) don't represent clients or file things for them.
