I attended the hearing/meeting.Basically, he was able to prove that the property was a two family/duplex since the 1950's.

Hi Ryan, I'm interested in chatting with you regarding costs to use your management company for my one unit (Duplex, second side is a LTR)  that is currently a MTR that I'm looking to move into a STR. 

I started with an FHA loan and a duplex house hack.

I think  buying a primary, putting 3-5% down, look for a home with potential to either rent rooms or duplex,  triplex or quad! 

What part of Philly is your duplex in? 

@Sandee SampsonA construction attorney would be who to contact but you are going to spend a lot more than $7000 in getting this resolved against a builder.Also let’s say you win, the courts could also say you didn’t pay for a retaining wall which is needed so it’s a betterment to the property so you would still need to pay for the wall and they would be responsible for some soil etc.

Can you still find a decent duplex in a good area for $100K these days?

Nobody is going to come for your $200k duplex with a loan - it is so much easier to target your insurance.First of all, don't give people a reason to sue you!

The only place we can get some semblance of this is on PassivePockets.com, where some sponsors are reviewed by LPs behind an LP-only wall. 

Me and my husband have a goal to house hack with a duplex or triplex.
