Your message goes to our brokerage team. It is not an offer, loan application or rental application and does not reserve a home or approve financing.
For a Chinatown property described as a conversion or mixed-use building, ask which homes and business spaces are part of the sale. Review available use records and the ownership documents. A listing that mentions apartments above a business does not establish that you are buying both or that either is vacant.

Review entrances, stairs, shared equipment and the responsibilities under any existing leases. Tell our team whether you are seeking a whole-property investment or a home to occupy. Use the actual property records rather than assumptions about neighborhood residents or promised rental demand.
Ask for the property boundaries, ownership documents and available records of the approved units and uses. Establish whether you are buying the entire building or one condominium. Review unit layouts, entrances, common areas and parking separately; a room count or a separate kitchen alone does not establish an approved dwelling.
If there are tenants, request available leases, collected income and owner-paid expenses. Separate actual income from proposed rent, and account for maintenance and periods without rental income. If you plan to occupy a unit, review existing occupancy and leases with your advisers before relying on a move date.
Compare financing, taxes, insurance, utilities and maintenance with your lender and advisers. Association charges may also apply if the purchase is a condominium. The CFPB’s homebuying budget guide explains why the purchase price is only part of the cost.
Ask about known repairs, past alterations and available inspection records. Discuss the roof, heating, electrical equipment and other building systems with qualified professionals. For an older property, request available lead records and review the EPA’s lead-paint disclosure guidance. Proposed renovations or new units need separate review; do not count them as existing homes or income.
