I have 2 doors in 38127 and have seen strong appreciation.

Normally those who invest in these neighborhoods are hyper focused on completing the BRRRR method, cash flow or acquiring as many doors as possible.  

The wall between the kitchen and living should be as open as possible (could be load bearing) but the wider that door way the better.

Typically you do not need to give 60 day notice, more like 3 days....law says one thing, but judges may not always follow the law, so I say send it to the tenant, send another certified with return receipt, AND post it on the back the of the front door or give it to them in person.   

Spending as little time on each door as possible.  

I’m trying to get my first HELOC done so I can continue to acquire more doors. 

Hey Abass, I was raised here in Columbus, Ohio and have 4 doors here.

2/3 of the units are singles/studios, so generally higher turnover, causing higher fees for clean outs and lease ups, etc, etcRecently had to get a "fire rated" door to the roof replaced from some city inspection, the first  bids were $3800-$4500, but with the right contractors and a little of my own time and motivation, i got the job done for less than $1500 and 12 hours of my time, and it had 2x the fire rating than the city required.

House hacking a duplex is a great way to start scaling your portfolio to more doors.

I'm skeptical. in most markets section 8 only allows one year leases.. and in my experience with 200 plus section 8 doors tenants move every 18 months they trash one house then go find another freshly rehabbed one.. of course each market will be different..
