Now that includes taxes at 1% of sale price in most cases and insurance that is affordable.best thing to do is line yourself up with a seasoned realtor and build a network who you can trust.

This season often poses challenges in attracting tenants.

Meet-ups via local groups or via zoom calls or private REI clubs/groups.Asking a seasoned agent in each city/county as well as a Banker/Loan officer will also help put a plan together.

Now, the older, house-hacked duplex comes on the market as a rental, lowering rental prices as another option available.Someone else moves out of their rent by the room unit, and upgrades to the duplex.

Points I can roll into the cost and don't mind a buy down if necessary.My primary concern is the bleed rate monthly for the build, Airbnb stabilization and the year after while we season it and prep for final financing for long term hold.

Say I travel seasonally.

Nov / Dec are the dead season.

Sept is seasonally slow here in South FLL.

I work with these two:Metro Detroit Property Management - Mark HutterNHL Property management - Howard GenserThere are a tonne of companies and each one has had good and bad experiences, so no one in particular stands out.One part of the equation is that the Detroit market itself is a tough place and is not for the novice investors.Only seasoned and large volume Investors make it successful in Detroit.

We own and manage two and one is particularly difficult during the shoulder (slow) seasons.
