I suppose that you and your wife are both still working full time, so moving into a Duplex is ideal for you because the other unit would get you close to (if not entirely) cover your mortgage and house hold expenses like utilities, etc. and help you and your wife free up a lot of your salary, right?

Hi all ,I’m in Miami Fl , (newbie) currently have three pre-construction condominiums in Dominican Republic for future vacation rentals and I’m looking forward to purchase an investment property in Florida .It will be fantastic to meet up !
