The joys of rentals
So I bought a duplex last September and have had both sides rented. My one tenant moved out last week and I figured while it was open I would just renovate it all so both sides are completely renovated. Needless to say the place is disgusting. You literally stick to the kitchen floor as you walk and it has a serious odor of stale beer and body odor. I also found a used condom on the basement floor. All his really didn't bother me though when I thought about the 4K worth of equity he has paid for for me along with the 1500 I have in the bank from it. Plus I can charge more rent after its all remodeled which should be done in about 3 weeks. I love being a landlord just wish I could find another property as good as this one
