I'm living in my first property I purchased a year ago. Took tons of work and will power, but I'm in the process of looking at some financing options to finish the work and get a duplex. I've done read everything I can read listened to every podcast I can listen too, every motivational speech on YouTube. I read I should shop around for financing. IM IN Detroit Michigan any ideas where I should begin

Nice to see you join the community @Elbert Crosby. Are you saying that you have a SFH that you're house-hacking now and you are looking to find a lender to finish the work on that house, then move on to purchasing a duplex?

I would recommend seeking out local banks and lenders. Personally, Chemical Bank has been helpful to me when purchasing my duplex. 

There are a bunch of investors from Metro Detroit that are on these boards that will be able to help you, as well. 

Good luck!
