I want to go the buy-and-hold route, and I am interested in finding a duplex that will provide a steady cash flow, a high appreciation value and does not need renovations.

I purchase my personal investments to maximize their equity and hold long term.

Ideally, I would like to use the buy and hold strategy, with a 50k budget to get started.  

If a landlord plans to hold the property for a while, we always recommend an annual lease, ending to align with the summer leading lesson, or staggered with their other leases depending on the situation.  

However, he isn’t much of a dreamer which can often hold me back from pursuing business ventures or ideas.

After 45 + years as a real estate investor, broker, lender, fund manager and syndicator, I’ve become aware that the “dream” of many investors and investor “hopefuls” is to be able to generate enough cash flow to live off their real estate holdings and accumulate enough wealth to make “work” optional.

Over time, I’d like to expand into short-term rentals, buy-and-hold properties, and flips.I’d love to connect and learn from this amazing community.

I think I'll hold off on any courses and just learn more from doing and the BP community.

It might be best to hold off until you hear of other BP members who have experience with them.
