Any advice for someone trying to buy their first duplex and house hack? I currently have a pre approval and am shopping properties and am stuck on the deal analysis side of things. I want to be able to pull the trigge...

We meet in person next week.It sounds like they are looking for a buyer who will pay off their existing mortgage and they will help out from a seller finance perspective on the rest of the $699k purchase price.If they put it on the MLS< what would it sell for?

I added value to the property by focusing on key renovations that aligned with the tastes of Hamptons buyers.

If you choose to go with a first time home buyer program, you would need to identify all the terms and advantage of that as MANY are available.

.- I prioritize building strong, professional relationships with my buyers by taking the time to understand their needs and goals.

Regarding the loan, yes, I am considering using an FHA loan since I think it’s a great option for a first-time buyer like me.As for a brand-new triplex, I hadn’t thought about that yet, but it’s definitely something I’ll explore.

We follow a similar model as @Bill B. and with similar results, except our properties are from the 60s, so we gut them and rehab from the studs up, basically resetting the clock. 

Basically, these are lands that technically qualify as Sending sites, but that have issues such that nobody really wants to build there.

That's what we do and we basically tell the students that "if we aren't willing to invest, it's not a good deal and you shouldn't do it." 

Forgive me kind folks here for the many questions, I consider myself a newbie and believe that even if my questions are basic and many, I persevere and try to know from resources and of course great folks like you all here to grow and learn to make the right decisions.
