You won’t get in trouble. I’m vague about it because they are some of my best tenants.  work reference and proof of income, former land lord letters.

I’ve bought homes with and without agents in TN. 

There’s a purchase agreement available online for free that has all you will need( pm me if you can’t find it)

You submit that signed contract to your lender and tell them the closing agency you will use and that will get the ball rolling. Next appraisal( scheduled by lender), termite inspection and home inspection( these 2 scheduled by you)can be scheduled. 

Good luck!

In the end unlikely to do better than an index fund for the average American. 

I have not heard of that company and that website seems it was created in 30 mins. 

Be careful and please let us know how it goes. Good luck!

Be mindful that sometimes you can't convert to a duplex if you change your mind down the road, zoning change etc. 

I have not encountered one scenario so far where doing voluntarily turning a duplex into a sfh makes sense $ wise, not even hud rental. 

2 nicely fixed units beat one. 

I'm eagerly waiting on others input here. 

I had no idea those things could be so expensive!! 

I think you are doing pretty well by yourself. 

Keep reading and expanding your knowledge, it is not always free but you can get a lot of books for 1000 bucks. 

Good luck!
