Congrats on your success in acquiring the duplex that now will yield 6.5% cap at current lower rental rates. 94115 is a great zip code to be in.

In the second you have two tenants with 3600/mo rents and lower costs, if one moves you still have 50% revenue coming in diversified across two properties.

I am confused, how there are options available today that does not comply with city rules (ceiling lower than 7ft)?

Potentially lower down needed of 15% with better rate and 6% cap in IPC’s

I think high risk dogs might not be worth it Maybe lower risk pets could provide a pet fee and give me a bigger tenant pool without such a high risk.Thanks for the advice!!

Where did you find this company and or was it referred to you.2. did you go with them because their fee's and interest rates were advertised as lower than other lenders.

Unless new companies move into town and create replacement jobs, all that will remain are lower-paying service sector jobs.

For example, should we focus on acquiring one high-quality property in a strong market, or would it make more sense to spread the investment across multiple lower-cost units in emerging areas?

By having a higher credit score or lowering your LTV you can reduce your interest rate and help to increase your DSCR.3.

You can generally achieve better bank leverage and has a lower barrier of entry.
