Cute neighbor

Hey guys so I’ve lived on this guys street for like two years and he’s really cute, and like we know each other’s names and stuff and we have mutual friends. So I’ve had his Snapchat since like February and we’ve never rly talked. But a few days ago he hmu and we’ve been talking for like 5 days straight but it’s just small talk and stuff but I’m super into him and I think he’s a great guy. Should I like ask him if he has a gf or something (like I know he doesn’t). But like I can’t tell if he randomly started talking to me because he was interested or if he just needed someone to talk to. (Hes not on his phone often and he doesn’t talk to a ton of people) any advice?
