It is the attention to detail that makes this classic residence so special.

@Adam Wallen Classic case if fixing something that wasn’t broken lol

Learn the ropes. you’ll get that classic Bay Area appreciation over the years.

However, that is of course a question your market needs to answer for you, not some random opinion from the internet - he he.If you are going to pony up for a new floor and pulling the plywood is part of that, one option there is to go old-school classic mixed with modern technology.

I bought a duplex and am living in half right now (classic house hack).

@Kevin Romero - Here is my "starting up" collection:Read ideal-vs-desperate-investor (http://greeneincome.com/index.php/2018/10/29/ideal-vs-desperate-investor/)Read Dave Ramsey book "The Total Money Makeover: Classic Edition: A Proven Plan for Financial Fitness." and complete the baby steps there.Read Scott Trench’s book “Set for Life.”Finish the school and get your degree - you'll need it later, especially if it's business management.Get a job first where you have W2 income.

But I would like advice on how to get my credibility back after the classic mistake of commingling business with a tenant. 

I like Bozeman because I have seen 80's-90's vintage deals with classic vintage (formica counters, original vinyl floors, classic vintage fixtures, white/black appliances, etc.) trade for >6.25-7.00% caps going in with value add upside for those willing to hunker down and make upgrades in order to realize rent upside.

It's a classic starter home for the area, so there's nothing great or horrible about it.I'd like to cash flow...well, enough to do something more than eat lunch once a month.

Biting off more than one can chew in a first deal just because the numbers seem to work is a classic, tried and true, error.Have you ever been a landlord?
