It's nothing like fancy pants hanging around kitchen stores picking out just the right cabinet door and handle pulls.

You also want to have the key if possible so you can slip the lock open... otherwise they bash down the door.

this depends on three things:1) your work ethic and personality2) your hunting and acquisition budget3) your timeTIME: If you're working full time, door knocking is out of the question.

You will need to make sure that are no gaps in windows, doors, etc and that the HVAC system is well maintained as a tenant could argue that lack of remediation is the culprit for a high utility bill.

I am bullish on Chicago long-term and will still own 10,000 doors on the southside with a goal of turning all 10,000 tenants into homeowners!

There are also strategies we can cover that help you obtain more doors with less money out of pocket, so let me know and we are happy to help!

Garages are also nice for storage and for tenant longevity.If you buy the duplexes well, in no time at all, you could refinance them and scale into a larger multifamily after you have some experience.

My Canadian partners and I bought a Class B 144 unit in Houston, Texas for 77k/door and we’re actively looking for another similar deal.

I have been at this since 2021 and have acquired 5 properties 7 doors in that time span. 

In fact, I don't know of any system that allows smartphone access without Wifi. and, I did some simple math, one refrigerator walking out the door in the middle of the night and it's $1,500 or squatters shooting drugs and it's major headache time.
