@Sami Gren Hi Sami, I’m currently finishing up purchasing a duplex in East Orange, I’ll be renting it out in October, so I can really only speak to 2 units. From what I’ve found for 2 unit houses in EO, you’re looking at around low 200s for medium rehabs, high 200s for low to no rehab. The closer you get to train stations and convenient areas, the higher you can expect the prices (sometimes 300+). Rents can be between $1300-$1700 depending on how nice the unit is and how close it is to a train station. For rents take a look at rentometer.com, or Craigslist to find similar listings to what you’re looking to purchase. The Newark/east orange area is scattered with nice areas and crime areas, so try to use Trulia.com crime maps to find a good area.
