My logic here may be a little convoluted considering the property is a duplex and you're house hacking but this is what I would do in your shoes.

Those that look down their noses at these landloards should spend a year in their shoes. 

So if you were in my shoes what would you do to start with multi families?

Putting myself in the shoes of a guest, no I don't want to stay in an RV park nor would I want to be in a city.

Would like your help, to help walk me through the steps I should take on how to approach a totally new state CT which I am not from, how to research, evaluate, analyze a 2 Fam property that doesn't need to be rehabbed and is move in ready that I am interested in state of CT.Someone sent me this MF property, if you were in my shoes,  a newbie MF investor, new to CT, what stepswould you take to make sure the property I am listing here is a good investment as a rental property.https://www.trulia.com/p/ct/br...

If they are cooks, they will walk into the house with greasy shoes. 

I'm not the biggest Dave Ramsey fan, but in your shoes I'd say take a page out of his book and start with $0.50 a day.

If I were in your shoes, this is what I'd do. 1. review/read the details of minimal requirements (see Brian's link)2. compare the agent's proposal against the requirements and see how they match3. determine your comfort level and decide...Sidebar: I took a few minutes to see if I could find any recent L/O agreements in Cumberland county.

As agents we all the know the risk of working on a deal and you get a sale fail and you don't get paid its happened to us all.. or your once best friend you hauled around to show houses for 3 months buys a FSBO and can't understand why your upset.... civilians just don't understand the industry until they walk in our shoes..

Mack Campbell i think that building a buyers list is definitely important, but even more important is to go out and get a good deal, if I were in your shoes I'd go out and find a good deal, and believe me if it's truly a good deal the buyers will be chasing you, or you could always post it here on BP in the marketplace.Good luck,David
