This likely will result in a lower unit value than if value was derived from comps (especially seeing commercial MF values have fallen in recent times).Good luck

You get PM experience, lower expenses, you don't live with your parents anymore, etc.. 

Even if you have a higher return in the stock market, you'd be doing it with a lower basis after tax and it will take a long while to recoup from that. 

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

She's also likely to be causing your tenant in the lower unit to have a higher heating bill.

When you bring in intentionally say 20 million illegal immigrants you lower the wages on lower income people both by their wages and increasing their cost of living thru more competition for resources.  

Shortly after the crash my tenants learned that condo developers were renting out luxury apartments in the area for around the same rents I was charging so I was forced to lower rents. 1200/apt 2 1050/apt3. 

Prices are far lower there “relatively” speaking due to low demand.  

So, if your current rent roll is still on the lower side, it could limit the amount you can borrow right now.However, if you have even a partial track record showing improvements.. say a few of the units are already updated and attracting higher rents.. a lender might take that into consideration when underwriting.

Your PSF will be much lower than it would be adding one small unit per lot.One thing to note is more than 4 units or more than one ADU changes the financing that is available.
