Aside from what everyone else wrote, note that adding units require various steps that you may not have considered (e.g., adding a new street address with USPS, etc.).

I am currently in the market to purchase a tri-plex with the plan to live in one unit, make upgrades, and rent the other two out.

This seems unrealistically low for a 40 unit property.

I used to sell Salesforce to REITs across the United States and this is what I've learned:For your needs - a CRM with a power dialer and SMS capabilities - there are a few options you might consider:Podio: This is a popular choice in the real estate community, especially for wholesalers.

I really would want to stay away from any office properties in depressed or even semi-depressed neighborhoods, especially large ones (like a 13 unit complex).

Built in 1905, this property features a total of 2,832 square feet of living space, divided into two units.

It's likely you'll be able to raise the rent as well with the upgraded unit and you can look to market it during the time of rehab. 

Most of the time, we resolve the situation in less than three months through cash-for-keys agreements, court mediation, or by creating enough pressure that the tenants decide to leave on thier own.We currently manage over 700+ units and flip about 20 multifamily properties a year, the majority of which have inherited tenant problems.

Live in it and rent rooms or units out.

Rental Property is located in Upstate NY in Oneida County.I have a tenant who is currently scheduled to have their lease end at the end of February; they will have only occupied the unit for a year at the end of their lease.I'm not looking to extend their lease and would like to have the unit vacant upon lease end.
