Are the tenants paying market rents?

Rented at $3,215 to a Section 8 Long-Term Tenant instead of a Long-Term Market Tenants for $2,400.

Buy on market, nothing wrong with that.

Thank you Lauren,  Yes, Pad split is already in this market so I think Im good.   

It sounds like your current property manager may not be marketing the rental effectively, and the fact that it's listed incorrectly as an apartment instead of a duplex could be turning off potential renters.

IMO better options- If you don't need the money in the next 10+ years look into Annuities I'm seeing 7-9% and you don't have to participate in market downturns.

If your goals are long-term - this market will offer a ton of appreciation and steady renter demand.

The key for me wasn't to invest in the 'best place' but to know a market so well that a deal jumps off the page when it appears.
