@Cloey Green there are so many different ways to think about and evaluate markets.

Schools aren't as solid as gwinnett so tenants tend to be less sticky.From a duplex perspective - 2/1 units lease up very well in the outer markets like Cartersville, Douglasville, Newnan ect.

I am so full of regret for even giving them a 3rd and 4th chance.

The problem you're going to run into is Fannie/Freddie doesn't allow second home loans on anything but a single family residence (yes can be condo, townhouse, etc. just not 2-4 unit) so you're automatically thrown into the investment loan world.

I have deals of all kinds, right now on my last three deals for some weird reason one come from wholesaler, the second from MLS and the third knocking a door.Having a partner in looking for deals is critical so you can brainstorm and make sure that is indeed a good deal.

I work mainly on the north side on Chicago and many realtors from south side call an area C that I would call a D and area I call B they would call A My grading goes like this.....

I have not closed on my first deal yet but I am hoping to do so this year. 

The DSCR calculated to 1.33 with that leverage and rate, so a pretty solid deal at first glance.Cheers!

Tenants lease expired, so I offered a new lease with a $25 increase.
