@Patricia Steiner As it is a condo I would think you could try to get the Association to do external pest control.

I am under contract for a 3 family home w a very unique set up. 2- 1 bedroom apartments and 3 and 4th duplex which has 5 bedrooms but only 1 bathroom this home is 8 min from Brown University in RI and 10 min from Johnson Wales. (6miles)Do u think its close enough to attract college students especially the duplex? 

Buy some single family, buy some duplexes, buy some 4plex. 

The rebound in single-family home sales is impressive, but what really catches my eye is the inventory growth and the trends in townhomes and condos. 

We provide new construction rentals and PM (single family, duplexes and Quads) for investors.

Currently have a duplex I’ve been in 3 yearsMortgage 3.65% pmt $850Tenant pays $875Heloc $30k——monthly $291The issue I am running into isRates are so high right now and it’s a lot harder to find another that will cover full mortgage.Does it make sense to leave somewhere that it is full covered to go to one that is not?

Upside is that you are paying off debt a lot faster with more towards principal and less towards interest. 20% down is only for SF, even a duplex will require 25% down unless owner-occupied.

I’m currently house hacking in a duplex with a 130 yr old fieldstone foundation.

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.

Have an intro call with them tomorrow and will likely move forward for 2023 taxes (have W2, a duplex and an Airbnb beach house)
