I helped some BP clients purchase a package of fourplexes last year and they've already raised rents by 15% in a little over a year of ownership.

It won't stay that way forever, so enjoy it while it lasts

The hard data that tells me it would not last over duration is the 10 year has a ton more support than the market expected(see current rate).

I am a realtor in Marlyand and last year I bought my first duplex which I currently house hack.

Lastly, having a reserve fund is key to offsetting unexpected costs, especially with reduced cash flow from the loan repayments.Hope this helps, and congrats on tackling creative financing!

This isn't the last home you will be buying in your lifetime.He should not get upset that you are doing your due diligence.

Or they can be sold to investors.I think they are particularly attractive for new investors to buy as a house hack - you live in one and rent out 3, most, if not all, your expenses will be covered.Look at what it last sold for, has it appreciated?

I’m talking about the kind of property you’re going to buy within a month or less and the seller just flakes out at the last minute.

The records show the house last sold in Sept, 24 for 382K and was listed in Oct 24 for 416K and reduced to 406K in November.

Lastly if your not sold on any market yet I have always done very well in and enjoyed military markets.
