When you go from a single family to a Duplex, it becomes "comercial" property and according to (Michigan) the local building dept, I had to hire contractors. 

I sold an apartment building and as I lived in the building was always there when my realtor showed it to prospective buyers. 

Only with a definitive goal can you accurately assess your options.What I hear you saying is that you do want to build a rental portfolio. 

Yes I understand that possibility, that's why I try to build relationships with the builders that I work with so they know that I'm trying to get them a good deal and I know that I can trust them with any potential contracts.

The idea is to leverage pre-existing networks in a way that builds instant credibility and gets responses fast.If you want to implement this strategy, here’s a link to the exact resource we used:👉 Spreadsheet Link Here (just make a copy for yourself)I also recorded a short video walking through how we set everything up, but since BiggerPockets has rules against sharing that kind of content, feel free to DM me if you have questions on execution.Anyone else using creative co-living marketing strategies that are working right now?

I’m looking for small multi-family homes in the $150k-$250k range, focusing on property appreciation with minimal cash flow to build reserves.I’ve been considering areas like Fishtown, Somerton, Roxborough, Haverford, Conshohocken, West Norriton, Upper Darby, Lansdale, and Abington.

My goal is to wholesale some properties single and multifamily to build some capital while fixing my personal credit and building my business credit.

It’s a 3 bedroom home, brand new build and just shy of 1500 sq ft.

Ironically, these are often the best opportunities to build equity and find great deals.

A few of my clients are actively doing BRRRRs in Sacramento by going for duplexes, adding ADU's, splitting lots and building another SFH.
