Currently, I'm focusing on building capital, saving, and investing to have more cash on hand until my next project, so for now, I'm simply educating myself on tax codes, financial investing, syndications, accounting, and creative ways to get involved in real estate investing. 

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

My understanding as to the reason talking to local inspectors was the updated building codes made them uneconomical; specifically requiring that buildings with more than 2 units have to have fire sprinklers.

I purchased 2 duplexes in Morningside, Wayne County, #Detroit, Michigan (zip code 48224) February 2024.I am also an #Out of state investor.Both are currently going through repairs and updates necessary for the city of Detroit to give me the Certificate of Compliance for rental units.

However, there are tax code changes every year.

I list on Zillow, primarily communicate with them over Zillow messages and then give our remote login code to enter the home. 2) Maintenance between tenants - This one will be tricky as I will have to transfer all utilities to my name and send multiple vendors to the house for getting the house rent ready.

However down the line if we fully converted the garage and got the extra bedroom up to code we could get more, especially through section 8.

I purchased in 2019 and there was certainly a learning curve (understanding county rules and code, getting to know the local renter demographic, dealing with a limited pool of service providers in the area, understanding fire risk and mitigation; etc).
