Any advice on expensive flips?

It seems your lender is a bit more expensive coming in at WSJ prime + 1.65%.

The program was created to give low-income tenants an alternative to living in federal project housing.S8 sets their rental rates to the LOW-END of market averages, if not slightly below.

Even though your market might prove expensive, I would exhaust all options before ruling it out.Truth is, you have a unique competitive advantage in your market.  

It was probably the most expensive Q&A we have ever paid for.

See if you can negotiate some selling or moving expenses with the company hiring you. 

I am no expert by any means but I thought I would drop my opinion here. 1) Should I focus on duplex since they're most likely less expensive in my area in category A or B properties, or aim for more units?

Did you have unexpected expenses?

With Plus, you can use Classes to separate properties and accurately track income and expenses by unit.

I wasn’t prepared to lose so much of my savings as carrying cost basically I paid for the tenants to live there for 3 months + my own living expenses in that time.
