Charlotte, North Carolina, has become a hot market for both homebuyers and investors alike.

3 hot water heaters, 3 furnaces, etc.3.

Need Game room, hot tub, so on..

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

Add in demand for the land itself, increase in the younger generation aiming for household formation, in-migration to Florida from retirees or from other relocations, and your observation is spot on.

Of those how many are 2 bed + home office or 3 beds, basically  suitable for a household earning $150K? 

@JD Martin the biggest issues have been related to furnaces, hot water, a missed clean, and broken hot tub. generous refunds have ranged from 25-100%, it really just depends on variables like nightly rate, guest demeanor, impact on their stay, etc. 

First, the syndicator who’s not long term - just really into what’s “hot” at the moment, figures he’s no longer going to make any more money, so loses interest.
