Walking score of 95.Pre COVID rental numbers:Monthly gross rent $15,250Cap rate 7.1%Future rental numbers:Estimated Monthly gross rent after current tenants move out $13,950Cap rate 6.5%Because monthly rent looks to be about 20-30% more if you rent by the month, I am considering renting out my duplex for monthly rentals on Airbnb/other sites and potentially for travel nurses (ideal because several hospitals are walking distance to my house).

The location is ideal, as it’s situated in a neighborhood that permits short-term rentals (STRs), making it a great investment opportunity.

The right idea is going to be the bread and butter.1) Ideal location2) Quality properties over quantity of properties3) 1.25x DSCR4) Intention to hold no less than 8, but ideally 12+ years.5) Sufficient cap reserves6) Mechanisms to enhance cash flow(via alt investing or house strategies).7) Liability protection through no PG loans(if possible), LLC formation, property management and being a diligent landlord.8) Invest deeper, before wider.Now if you're talking where to invest, different information.

Ideally, you network with people who have owned properties for a long time.

Given the scope of your work, a simple plumbing leak would not concern me, it's a $200 issue at the most and ideally, it's just another line item when you do rough in plumbing for the kitchen.Being in a Milwaukee suburb, I am guessing it's a 1960s ranch, probably with galvanized plumbing.

Ideally a HELOC is used for less then a  year project where you can refi or sell to pay back the HELOC. 5 years is a long time, things can happen and if you reduce the cashflow on both properties you'll be increasing the risk and having thinner margins.

Ideally not too much of both.The best way to learn what makes a good deal is to just keep analyzing.

We have a great house in houston that is an ideal wrap.
