Option A or option B?

Joshua Bailey
Posted

So I'm closing on my 1st investment property. Its a duplex both are 2/1. The smaller unit i was going to furnish for travel nurses since I anticipate the smaller unit would have a high turnover rate anyway if it was a LTR. I've had a good amount of request for the one apartment and considering furnishing the other unit for traveling nurses and airbnb during vacancy. Being my 1st rental would it be wise to solely rely on travelers or would you put a long term in one and do travelers in the other.

Option A: Both furnished for travelers.

After all expenses it cash flows $574 and has a 40%CoC return.

Option B: One furnished and one LTR.

After all expenses it cash flows $367 and has a 25% CoC return
