Balance data with personal priorities.

I’d love your input on whether this deal could appeal to investors and how best to structure it.Property Details:Worth: ~$300,000HOA: $273/month, Taxes/Insurance: ~$170/monthCurrent Rent: $1,880/month (long-term); next tenant advertised at $1,950/month.Mid-term rental potential: ~$2,400/month (I haven’t tried this, but it’s my estimate).My Financing Idea:Large down payment: ~$125,000 (This is my priority to reinvest elsewhere).Seller-financed balance: ~$175,000 at 4.25% for 30 years.Buyers take over taxes, insurance, and HOA.Questions:1.

I have a 2.5% interest rate on the balance of the mortgage. 

In real estate there is no perfect deal or perfect market.

Quote from @Edgar Duarte: hi allI would love to get some perspective from your expertise, we have a property that we would have to sell in 2025 to avoid paying taxes on the capital gains, we believe we rcan sell it for $700K and get an equity of almost $500K after paying the mortgage balance, if we invest all of it option in index funds at 7% rate (standard com growth calculator), or in more rental properties as we are all here for, I can get the equity of around $900K.option B would be keep paying the house at 2.3% int rate while we have it in AirBnB and maybe sell it in 10 years for $900K, knowing that we would be paying taxes but it is not that bad still. or we can 1031 at that point?

This duplex is perfect for investors looking for a low-maintenance property with strong cash flow potential.

These experiences shape my growth-mindset and value-first orientation, ensuring I bring a unique perspective to every deal.Personal Insight:As a father of six, I understands the importance of balancing family values with sound investment strategies.

It balances stability with potential for appreciation, especially if you find a reliable tenant.On the other hand, for investors with time, experience, and a willingness to take on higher risk, active strategies like value-add projects or flipping might yield quicker returns but require deeper involvement.

They’re easy to install and, while not perfect, they’ll make a noticeable difference.
