Jimcrackcorn's idea seems the best to me. Maybe you could invite other neighbours too, if you know any?

just saying Hi is a start . then a random hello, then a. hi ...the weathers nice today - just come up with reasons to get him talking I guess

Sounds like it's time to introduce yourself to him. Next time you see him in the hallway, go up to him and say "Hi, I'm Jim from apartment 666 just down the hall from you. I'm having a get-together at my place with some friends and I'd like to invite you over" (or something along those lines)

Set the party date for a week in advance, and quickly invite a couple other people over for the party. If he comes to the party, then you'll have ample opportunity to get acquainted, and hopefully find out if he's into guys.

Best of luck,
Jim
