A duplex is a great way to get your feet wet in multifamily investing, giving you two rental incomes under one roof, which can be a great balance between cash flow and passive income.I’d also suggest looking at markets that offer solid rental returns.

I love to purchase simple 3/2 homes that are a little older in good areas with somewhat newer mechanicals, HVAC, Roofs, etc. 

Because I'm buying at such a good price, the seller will not pay for the roof.

If the seller is still on the property after you close (you negotiated delayed possession), I wouldn't be opposed to doing exterior work (roof, landscaping, concrete, etc.), but I wouldn't do any interior work.

This included installing new tile flooring at the front of the house to enhance curb appeal, upgrading the electrical panels for safety and efficiency, and putting on a new roof to ensure long-term durability.

The building is in great condition with a new roof and is professionally managed.

How old is the roof? 

we have changed out the carpet and paint as the tenant moved out, replaced the roof, and built a fence in the back What was the outcome?

How much would it cost to build a 6 shipping container with only doing, insulation, wiring, plumbing, roof.

The house was a hoarder house and needed a large amount of work (Roof including plywood, facia boards, soffit, gutters, underground plumbing, outdoor deck, all windows, doors, flooring, bathrooms, half the sheetrock, retaining walls, etc.)
