Apartments are the least ideal living situation for us, so what if we got stuck in a multifamily property we intended to just be in for a short time.

Ideally looking to cash flow positive on all properties.  

Ideally the owner would handle everything and would have no need for a property management company with only this single duplex in their portfolio.

It wasn’t ideal, but it was the only way to keep the deal alive.I made the drive to her small town, met her at a local bank, and had the paperwork notarized.

I suggest focusing on building your "Core 4" team—agent, lender (one who can finance both the purchase/rehab and refinance is ideal), contractor, and property manager.

Any help is much appreciated - obviously a short term rental would be ideal, but it looks like thats out the question for now. 

Its market-ready condition and strong local demand made it ideal for a fast, profitable transaction, aligning perfectly with Partner Driven’s strategy of securing high-yield properties in promising locations.

We're open to other strategies, but believe that sounds the most ideal so far. 

Always good to have more information in an intro than just a "hello" so we can point you in the right direction.
