2 family 3 story homes brooklyn/ Manhattan / Bronx

[Remo F.]

Hi, This question is for New Yorkers familiar with Brooklyn, Manhattan 2 family Brick/Brownstone homes. I'm looking flip 2 family homes and wanted to get your thoughts on which set up would command top dollar to a buyer. Which setup do you think is more appealing to a buyer? 1. Rental on the ground floor (renter will have access to the basement and garden) and duplex on the top 2 floors? Duplex will have access to garden via steps leading down. 2. Rental on the top floor and duplex using the ground and 2nd floor ? (With access to the garden and basement) I hope this makes sense
