Hey everyone, I’m getting new garage doors and windows on my duplex property.

Updating all the mechanicals, refinishing the wood flooring, adding a 1/2 bath, flipping the kitchen from the existing kitchen into the dining room to make it more usable, updating the full bath, and adding a garage as well as painting throughout.

Hi all,A long time ago Brandon Turner (@BeardyBeandon) mentioned his minimum criteria for investing was: * $100/mo/door cash flow* 10% CoC annual return I’ve used that as a guide since I heard that… thank you Brand Turner! 

This gives us a chance to look for damage and to check for things like sinks under faucets, toilets that run, loose cabinet doors etc.

Those rents qualify as income to afford a bigger home loan and to offset the mortgage payment.Its also a great way to move out and have a multi-unit property bringing in more cash per month with more doors.

My wife and I own our house on a half acre lot and also own the half acre lot next door.

It would be a real drag to have John Doe gone at the end of your eviction proceeding, only to have to deal with one (or more) squatters after the sheriff has shown the tenant the door.3.

This should open the door for the Fed to hopefully consider a couple of rate cuts this year.

Ithaca is like another planet.STRENGTHS-  appreciation is pretty much guaranteed, no matter how crummy your property is-  student housing isn't restricted, they'll live anywhere-  having an ivy league school means there's a lot of money flying around-  rent is high-  tons of development and growth going on-   strong STR performance outside the city properWEAKNESSES-  almost absurdly high prices-  similarly absurdly low cap rates-  pesky annual inspections required on multifamily properties-  most deals happen behind closed doors, and agents tend to be very unhelpful-  5-7% cap rates typical, sometimes lowerSummary: Ithaca is a great market to park your money in and wait.

Then, I searched for new or almost new gated Townhomes and finally paid Cash for a 1500 3/1 with garage and pool, in a 17 unit community with low HOA in Valrico on the North side of Hwy 60 for peace and quiet and safety while I travel.
