Good on your friend for suggesting house hacking a duplex.

Do you have an in-house repair staff?

This is my second time working with 2 guys on a house I am flipping.

Happy to discuss this further on what might make the most sense for your end goal.If you are renting right now and starting your path in real estate investing, as said above, I really do like the house hacking strategy for your situation.

When I tried to get it when my side of the family found out and tried tp take over reverse mortgage payments to bank because she had died it was to late so they sold the house to Hud and then other reverse mortgage companies but a relative still lives there so they can't kick them out.

This was a great way to keep the home in the family and avoid the house going into tax foreclosure.

This facility has 144 Units and a 3400sqft shop house on the property.

It's a huge house with tall basement ceilings.

I need to redo the roof of the house lift up the second floor, the entire front deck of the house, demolish the old stucco, And replaced a lot of rotten wood and messed up beams.does anyone have any recommendations? 

First house, we are living in it while flipping.
