You need to understand everything and stress test.

A couple months of vacancy or repairs could put you behind the eight ball.You could always sell the duplex and take the equity and roll it into something bigger.

So, annualized returns fall as the decades roll and you slowly pay off the mortgage. 

Our intention would be to roll the money from that sale directly into our second-home property.

And bigger tariffs that he's supposedly going to roll out is going to make things worse.And then what happens is that the other countries respond with tariffs of their own and that costs businesses here to lose revenue because now their goods are more expensive with the added tariffs in those overseas countries.Again, I think there is a place for tariffs. 

Do you roll the deposit over for the tenant that renewed?

Besides a rent roll, copies of the leases, and P&L or cash flow statement for the property, what else do I want to look at?

I plan on testing for the RE license by December.

Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one of them should stand out for you.

We always tested people out on small projects first such as doing a gut of a bathroom, 2 day repair jobs, etc.
