duplex

[Derone Patterson]

Greetings everyone, as a first time home buyer I am I the process of buying a duplex. Soon to be moving in soon. My question is, there are two long term tenants living there. Its a nice area. I know my mortgage will be covered by the two bed room unit up stairs. Downstairs has one bed room and basement has a separate entrance that has a full bath but no kitchen. Both tenants said they rather stay, but I have to occupy one unit. Is it a good idea to keep one tenant there? Thanks for reading.
