My duplex - built 1989, 2,060 sf, 2 bed/bath, 1 year old roof, value if I subdivide (county already approved) and sell each separately $150k each ($300k total)Investor duplex - built 1995, 2,300 sf, 2 bed/bath, 5 year old roof, value around $310kThe investors initial request was for an equal trade and they would pay realtor fees, which I replied wouldn't be equal due to buying/selling costs (recording fees, title insurance, closing fee, survey, inspections, loan fees, 1031 fees, accountant fees, repairs), taxes would increase due to new sale price, I'd trade a 3.75% mortgage for a higher one, and I'm on the 10th year of a 30 year loan so resetting that to a new loan would restart amortization and pay more towards interest.

The property does have heated radiators through out each unit. everything is separated for each unit electricity, gas, and window units in each property.

Yes, I’ve been working for the past 4 years at two separate jobs but was part time up until may 2024 when I went full time in both jobs.

I would pay them separately rather than giving a rent credit.

These two concepts are separate from each other.

For most investors, to provide true separation would be cost prohibitive (between $10k-$15k). 

I don't think you are going to be able to get insurance for two separate living units in a single-family when they are both illegal and likely do not have the correct egress windows (basement) for fire safety which could subject you to huge liability if something happens to either party.

this is unacceptable for someone like me who manages and is a member of multiple separate LLCs, partnerships, portfolios.
