i understand a true duplex might be a lot more expensive, but i think it's at least worth continuing to research and keeping an eye on.and sticking to my original point, OOS can be tough. 

There's no precise figure because no one will understand your STR or market as well as you do- or, as well as you will (with time).

I don’t completely understand how I could best put my money towards a rental property or fund one with the income that I am making.

I understand if you’re going in with a partner and you don’t trust them enough to use TICs and insurance, but as a solo investor why?

My understanding is that the market is more important than the property.

What I don’t understand, and help me on this, is why someone would simply want to purchase the Mortgage/DOT without the note. 

I was just hoping to transition it into LTR and since we have newer furniture that fits the space well, it just seemed a shame to sell it all to do an unfurnished LTR, but again, I'm having a hard time understanding how logistically some of the details are worked out with that with furniture involved in an LTR.Thank you again for the support!

Planning for flexibility with frequent moves and understanding property management will set you up for success when you start investing in 2026.Good luck!

ouch....sure can understand why you didn't engage with them. 

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!
