Reaching out, having conversations and building relationships is how you add them to "your team".

When did you finish building the home and when are you planning to be done with current renos?

Shortly after I slowly took on a fulltime postion at a large real estate firm and helped build out their residential PM service since mine was owner operator properties only.

Hey Hughston, The biggest recommendation I have for out of state investors is for them to build their CORE 4 in whatever city they are investing in.

This can help offset your mortgage and other expenses.Single-Family Home: If you choose a single-family home, you may have the option to rent out rooms or a separate unit if there's space, but the income potential might be lower compared to a duplex.Affordability:Duplex: Financing a duplex might be more challenging, but the rental income can assist with affordability.Single-Family Home: Single-family homes might be more accessible for first-time buyers, but you won't have rental income to offset expenses unless you choose to rent out a portion of the property.Property Management:Duplex: Managing a duplex involves dealing with multiple tenants and units, which can be more time-consuming than managing a single-family home.Single-Family Home: Managing a single-family home is typically simpler since there's only one tenant.Privacy:Duplex: Living in a duplex means you'll share a building with tenants, which could impact your privacy.Single-Family Home: Offers more privacy as you won't be sharing the property with renters.Market Conditions:Duplex: In some markets, duplexes may offer better appreciation potential and cash flow due to the rental income.Single-Family Home: Depending on the location, single-family homes may have better long-term appreciation potential.Long-Term Plans:Duplex: If your goal is to accumulate rental properties, starting with a duplex can be a good way to get into real estate investing.Single-Family Home: If you prioritize a more traditional living arrangement and don't want to manage rental units, a single-family home might be a better fit.
