Looking at Duplex

[Mike Reece]

I have invested small time real estate for several years now.

 I now want to start making more money off of it.

I have found a really nice duplex for around $150,000.

I don't know if it's a good idea, a good deal, if I can get financed or anything about buying something like this.

I've spent hours listening to bigger pockets podcasts and reading forums, seeking advice and a mentor but I just haven't found the key to unlock this mystery.

I work a hard job physically and mentally demanding that I hate and I'm looking for a way out.

Can anyone give me a simple rundown on how to get started in multifamily properties or put me in contact with someone in or around Arkansas that is honest and can help? A link a book, anything will help!

Thanks and God Bless,

M. Reece

 Mike, are you thinking of living in one and renting out the other? If so, I found this BP article that might be useful: https://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2015/03/2....
