This is a solid spot to connect with folks.

That’s a 6.7% jump compared to last year and 3.6% higher than November.

The inspector wanted me to add 2 screws to anchor the condenser and he did check for leaks at the gas connection (the gas connection that was flagged was decades old and I questioned if was before a permit was required but city stated it was up to me to prove that it was there prior to permit requirement).

Lastly.

congrats on the first duplex. easiest will be house hack your next property. you can go higher in units up to 4 but just need to occupy the property. lets connect if you need guidance, i house hacked a few times

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

I hope you are doing well and sounds like you are an experience investor in this market - would love to maybe grab coffee sometime and hear about the experiences you have gain over that last 15 years!

This is all despite the fact that they've made no improvements to the properties since acquiring them, and local property value indices only have about 15% appreciation for property values in the last 2 years for my area.

Go to a couple of real estate investor meetups and make connections.

Excited to connect, learn, and share.
