Depending on your finances you don't necessarily need to start with a duplex, but I wouldn't go any more than 4 unit if you're going residential.

I feel the investor is off to a great start.

When you start working with distressed properties, the regulators take a close look. 

I had a partner over 23years ago when we first started.

Unless you are sourcing properties yourself off-market, REI became much more challenging in 2023, and downright brutal since the start of 2024 here.

@Juan Pablo Murillo We have been in the business for a while, but we have helped others get started.

👋It’s awesome that you’ve already started diving into the calculators and podcasts—those are great resources for anyone just getting started.Since you’ve had some rental experience already, I’d love to hear what you found most challenging about owning and selling that property back in 2017.

It's a great place to start.
