Either looking into a live in fix and flip since the housing market is hit with rates being lower and houses in high demand or looking into buying a fix and then turning it into a rental after 2 years of living in and remodeling or looking into a multi family where I can live in a u it and rent the other.

Unlike the first two which we will quickly touch-up and list for sale, the plan for the third is a substantial remodel.

I knew after looking at the house that it couldn't be remodeled.

But they do seem like the type that won't pay, then I'll come back in a couple weeks to start remodeling the place and they're sitting on the couch smoking pot.

What I really like about this neighborhood is properties are cheaper but it’s still close enough to western you can pull the same quality/millennial tenants as properties just east of western that cost nearly twice as much. 2br 1ba 1st floor unit: $1300 – Keep as-is2br 1ba 2nd floor unit: $1550 (Will try $1600 first but to be conservative) – Keep as-is3br 2ba duplex unit: $2200 conservative depending how luxurious comps go up to $2500ish – RehabParking: $75x2 = $150 Total rents: $5200Purchase price: $530,000 with a $7500 closing credit + $20-25k for spiral stair case install and remodeling of attic = $542,500 at $5200 = .95% + added equity being a legal 3 with 3br 2ba now.

Hi, am looking to remodel only the exterior of a 2-BR home and a pair of garage apartments in the rear of the property.

I had to wait an additional 2 months after closing till the tenant was out, and that put my remodel schedule behind. 

The best way to get an understanding of the growth in specific areas is to look at sold, remodeled homes on the MLS and check out the time in took for those properties to sell.

However, when you factor in the time value of money, and the minor(Or major) remodel needed after a tenant moves out, you might as well just keep flipping.

I think the repairs needed (before having an inspection) are complete gut and remodel of bedroom, partial remodel of kitchen, fireplace inspection and repair and 2 years out on a new roof.
