The purpose of triple net is not massive annual rent bumps for appreciation in cash flow.You can get certain 1% to 3% bumps for certain products.If you want massive yield then you look at something like multifamily.

I have saved enough money to pay 20% down for both properties and have a safety net for several months of payments (if I lost job etc)...The triple family homes I'm looking at around about 130k - 150k and each unit rents from 850-1100 which allows for the property to fall within the 2% rule.

When renting it, the downside is that if your tenant stops paying rent then your cashflow stops.Duplex, Triple, Quadplex - These are powerful investments since you have multiple dwelling units.

I've started venturing out towards the Worcester area (central MA), but I'm still having a hard time finding numbers that work.Most of the triple deckers in the worcester area are beat up to the point that the more or less need to be gutted.

@Bryce Christensen I want triple damages!

So I can rent it to my company triple net and wright off the mortgage utilites etc but nothing more I guess

Which is well above the 10-20 range...... like triple digits above...

If you are performing the comps on your own, double/triple check you are certain about what you want to offer for the home.

Only downside is you have to live in the property for 10 yrs, but the down payment/closing assistamce(interest free) is forgiven.I got into a triple decker with 11k down and 27k in downpayment/closing cost.They also have certain lenders that participate in the program.

I have heard unsettling stories about home insurance costs doubling or even tripling for single and small multifamily houses in certain parts of Florida.
