Considering a Duplex on a Double Yellow Line Road, advice please?
Hello BP friends. I need some help; I am considering purchasing a duplex where the entrance faces a road with double yellow lines. I would say the house entrance is an average distance from the sidewalk and road (see picture).
I ask as another investor and agent has told me he has a rule to never buy properties on a double yellow line as you have higher turnover, and you must discount the rent as it is so unfavorable.

- Do you agree or have any experience with property on a double yellow line road?
- In analyzing the deal, any recommendation for how much to discount the average rental rate when looking at comps?
- How about turnover, do you think it will be higher even with an adjusted rental rate?
Thank you as I feel a bit lost on this one and I know someone on BP has managed a property on a double yellow. Best, Lee
