Background and Current SituationI currently own a home in Clovis, CA with $472k owed on a $487k mortgage. My total payment is $3500 (including escrow); it could rent for around $2700. The property is in a prime locati...

And when it does move up it also hurts the borrower by likely reducing his home’s fair value if he were to sell.Let’s say a borrower wants a $600k house and is chewing on fixed vs AIO.

A buddy of mine managed to get a better deal because the local lender understood the potential of owning adjacent properties.Honestly, the financing world can be a bit of a maze, and it's easy to feel a little lost.Anyway, hope that gives you a few ideas to chew on.

It leaches chemicals into the water, does not last as long as copper, rats chew through it.

I also own a multi-million dollar IT Staffing firm, a Hunting Outfit in AZ and a Antler Dog Chew Company :) Would love to chat!

Hi Fergus,If you can handle the workload thats going to come with building the two duplex's, I say go for it.If your going to be biting off more than you can chew, liquidate.It really depends on your risk tolerance at this point.The construction loan is a doable deal as long as you have solid credit, have experience /hire a builder.

Towns/cities hate them because there are no proprety taxes yet they chew up services for things like more school kids, etc.I'm sure there are deals to be had out there in parks for people that are looking. 

Just a few things to start to chew on, hopefully this was helpful.

Took one booking, the tenants broke contract by bringing a pet (dog hair and a bone were left behind), and Landing was not exactly pleasant to deal with in recouping security for extra cleaning and damages (dog used the ceiling fan remote as a chew toy). 

You don’t want to bite off more than you can chew with an off-market property.
