I've located a property which I believe is promising and would love some feedback from you pros!

Good condition duplex, selling for $150,000. Rents currently are $975 for the 2 bed/2 bath, and $695 for the 1 bed/ 1 bath: $1670 total. Taxes are $3,000. I'll see the interior today. The exterior building is well cared for, though there is parking potential that hasn't been exploited.

The area is mixed SFH and multis. There aren't very good comps. Current rents seem reasonable for the area. Newer townhomes are mixed with lower middle/middle class SFHs and a variety of multis. A high-end hotel going up now with 200 rooms and scheduled 40some townhomes about 1 mile away.

I'll be buying owner-occupier. Would love questions or opinions. Thanks ahead!
