My wife works for Ferguson, and I know many contractors, so I can get a lot of materials at cost.

Purchase price: $90,000 Cash invested: $55,000 Triplex in SE Cleveland (D+ neighborhood)Purchased for 90 and saw 105 for valuation. 25% down plus closing costs and unit repairs has led to about 50-60k going into the deal.

Can you give a cost breakdown?

My experience with the smaller multi-family units has been that more occupants = more wear and tear on your property so the turnover costs are often higher than SFH.

Attorneys  dont cost, they pay. 

There are also additional costs of operating and maintaining an LLC, like separate bank accounts, annual report filings, tax filings, etc.2.
