Correct or not no. 6

Hi,

Are these sentences 100% correct?

1. Do you know my address? (where I live)
2. Do you know my apartment's address? (I'm not sure if the Saxon Genitive can be used here)
3. Do you know IBM's address in this city? (again, the same thing)
4. Do you know the address of IBM in this city?

Thank you

PS. One more.

5. Could you please send me the address in Chinese characters? Both of IBM and my apartment? / Both IBM's and my apartment's ?

Actually, it is common to use ’s with corporations, stores, etc. Forget what I said about IBM. Still waking up, you see.
