Purchase price: $125,000 Cash invested: $65,000 Sale price: $250,000 Wish I could have held onto it but needed the money to fund future deals What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I'm 53, married with 2 kids less than 17 years old with debt only from purchases on credit cards and my home.

Quote from @Jacob Campbell: Hello - After listening to the podcast, I've made a commitment to purchase a rental property by the end of Q2 this year (ideally by the end of Q1).

Was that purchase money, rate and term refi, or cash out refi?

I don't know if this is for you, but my husband and I have mentored quite a few investors in Canada and helped them purchase their own multifamily. 

@Christopher HeidrichRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I just purchased my first duplex (only SFHs in my portfolio so far) and it doesn't have the gas/water split.
