Even though interest rates are high, we have a big Mircron plant coming here as part of the CHIPS act so that could boost housing demand in the coming years.I don't know the SYR market, but I did a quick search for duplexes somewhat outside of the city, and found this: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/7300-Lakes....

I wish you luck in your search @Sidney Duquette!

A HELOC is a great way for you to self-fund the improvements.

A quick web search shows it can cost upwards of $25,000.I'd say that if the flea-bag isn't a service dog now, it probably never will be.

However, these properties generally have a lot of land improvements that qualify as well as certain portions of electrical, mechanical and plumbing that can qualify.

If you’re looking at retrofitting to separate heating for each unit (like furnaces or mini-splits), you might be looking at a higher upfront cost, but it can shift utility expenses to tenants and improve your NOI.I’d factor in boiler age and efficiency when analyzing deals and if it’s near the end of its life, negotiate a price reduction or a credit.

If you're open to expanding your search some time in the future, I would recommend checking the Columbus OH market.

figuring that if I track and work towards creating and "presenting" 250 specific deals to my clients.My Theory being: Tracking "deals presented" will pull forward the need to go search and find deals, and will also drive the deals closed and revenue numbers, so we shall see but logics out to me so I'm liking it so far.

Hi Sri, I'd be happy to help with your search in Phoenix, I'll shoot you a PM!

I have not been impressed to date with Suncoast PM and if nothing improves I'll be looking for a new PM when agreement term expires.
