I recently bought a duplex and I am in the process of finding a tenant for one of the units.

As for your ownership of the duplex....

House hack a duplex with a low down payment primary residence loan (think FHA, VA or 5% down conventional).2.

I accumulated enough cash with the added $18K/year to purchase at foreclosure auctions, including the duplex I currently live in, now mortgage free.

I am thinking I would like to start with a duplex/triplex/quadplex but I am open to your suggestions.I really enjoy making money and have been in technical sales for more than 30 years.

Single-Family Homes (SFR) offer lower purchase prices, easier management, and better cash flow, while Small Multifamily (Duplex, Triplex, Fourplex) offer better cash flow, economies of scale, faster scaling, higher purchase price, complex financing, and tenant management.Good luck!

A half duplex in the Calgary suburbs where I live sells between 500-700k. 

Hello all, I am coming to the end of the lease with my first tenant in a duplex that I'm living in, and plan on not renewing the current tenant's lease for various reasons. 

Most of the renovations we did were upstairs for the tenants unit (duplex up).

I don’t want to do LLC yet because I’m just starting and have only one duplex.
