Quote from @Lisa Albright: Hi All,Newbie here, just a quick question we are building an addition on our second home, we have a primary residence, and two rental properties.

Roughly 1,600 sq ft. 2 stories.The alternative is to repair, pressure wash & paint the property costing roughly 4k-6k due to the amount of labor.

If they over-promise and under-deliver, transfer the next property to a different PM.

The property sold for $154,900 on 2/7/25, delivering a successful outcome thanks to strategic updates and efficient project management.

Active listings also saw a notable rise, with 212,437 properties on the market, a 19.4% year-over-year jump.

When I found the property I simply extended the radius of my search and tadaaaa "duplex" cought my attention and especially for a $350k purchase.

With proactive planning, they should be able to close on replacement properties within the 180-day period.

Quote from @Evan Thomas Andriola: For those with properties (preferably duplexes in Cleveland) do you usually rent places with appliances (fridge, stove, etc.) already included or do you ask tenants to bring their own (mostly section 8).

After 8 years or so, you've got three or four properties and the world opens up to you at that point. 

Your ability to turn around a property with an 11% cap rate is a pretty strong selling point.
