I’d love to help, feel free to reach out if you want more advice/guidance.

After years of focusing on my career and building financial stability, I’m ready to dive into real estate investing and start creating passive income and long-term wealth.My short-term goal is to purchase my first duplex or single family rental. 

You could potentially put as little as 3% down if it's a single family home and 5% down for 2-4 units.

I own several single-family rentals (SFRs) with Section 8 tenants, which have built significant equity over the years.

Additionally, cost segregation and bonus depreciation can accelerate tax benefits.Because filing as single taxpayers limits certain deductions, planning in advance ensures you maximize benefits while avoiding complications.

I understand it can be harder to gain experience with larger multifamily properties compared to single-family homes or duplexes, where someone might complete 5 deals in 1-2 years.

If they qualify as tenants, you might need to honor tenant rights or negotiate a settlement to vacate.Market Potential: A two-family home and a single-family unit could be a great income-generating property post-rehab or resolution.

If you do not, I would still love to connect sometime when time permits.

They sell a 4 unit for close to 1 million dollars close to Jacksonville. they want 250k or 300k down. there's no upside. you can google the properties on biggerpockets and there isn't a lot of satisfaction. it's a slow return and get rich slow strategy. our focus is always as a builder to add maximum value, lower cost as low as possible, build and rent and build and sell the same product and raise prices to help investors out. we have a large market share and large purchasing power in our market in columbus ohio. the one strategy I never liked about turnkey new build brokerage companies like them and build2rent or others is they don't really build close to urban centers and most are single family homes. the numbers don't work on single family homes. if single family was the way to go more companies would be doing it. but by far the most common type of new construction built is three story walk up apartments.

@Konstantinos Lembesis If you search for posts using the city as your search term you will find many discussions that should give you more context than you might gather with a single post.
