Duplex that stays rented, I haven’t had to do any major repairs to date. It could use an update but for now we have good renters in place so, don’t fix what isn’t broken. I have almost made back my initial investment so I think it was a very good investment

Don’t rent to friends, the only problem I have had with this property was renting to a friend.
