We're finalizing the acquisition of our first duplex and just had our inspection.

SFH or duplex/triplex/quad.

Yes, look at properties in Galveston, 6102 Sea Wall Blvd, Galveston, this complex allows STR's, we can do STR no seasoning DSCR loans if you are interested.

We wanted to buy it and build a duplex or SFH to rent out.

Built in 1890, this Old Victorian was converted into a duplex in the 70's by a talented architect who made some unique and extraordinary custom design choices (read Vaulted Sunlights) that make this property truly one of a kind.

I have a duplex where the plumbing was getting backed up.Had a plumber go out there and put a camera in the lines and turns out there are roots growing into the plumbing from a nearby tree.The quote to rip out and replace the plumbing was a staggering number.My thought is to cut down the tree to stop the growing and then eventually put the liner in the plumbing.Any experience with this?

For a first time OOS investor, I'd suggest buying a single-family or duplex LTR to make sure whatever market you choose is a good fit.

I have a duplex that I'm house hacking in the forest acres area of Columbia.

I hired them to rent out my condo/apartment and was told that a “professional photographer” would be coming to take pictures, instead a man came with 3 small children that were kicking our freshly painted walls/trim while he snapped pictures with an old phone.

We have a small but growing RE business with single family/duplex homes largely doing the BRRRR strategy.
