My name is Jake and I own a small Roofing/Remodeling Company in North Carolina.

I refinanced a couple of times and took money out to remodel the whole place.

Rented one for $625 to a regular tenant renting the other one for $550 to a person that will use it as an airbnb (I'll keep everyon posted on this)We did some fixes to the 2 non-remodeled not as heavy as the others (painted walls, fixed things that were not working) rented one at $695 all bills included and have a potential lead at the same price.

He remodeled my primary home in San Francisco, my investment home and the homes of a few of my friends.

We recently bought our first two properties and are almost done with the remodels.

Complete new kitchen, remodeled both bathrooms, flooring, paint etc.

Then by the time I actually start searching for the homeowner the house has already been purchased and is in the middle of being remodeled.

Most people will move into a nice, clean, freshly remodeled home that's priced competitively, regardless of one bad neighbor.

I closed on the duplex last July with a vacant upstairs unit that I completely remodeled myself along with doing two roofs and a 600 sq ft wrap around porch that set me back about 20k on top of the conventional investment down payment.
