I found a duplex priced at $550k that appears in good living condition.

Also is you purchase say a duplex and plan to live in one unit you can use the income from the second unit as long as there is a tenant with a 12 month history.

Plano is probably a better place to live vs buying rentals.This is where all the corporate relocations used to go about 25 years ago or more.Now most of those seem to move to Frisco and Proper.About five months ago I looked and in Frisco, Plano, McKinney, there were over 1000 homes for rent. 

Our living expense needs are pretty well handled by Social Security and pensions, so there is no crisis at hand.First unit is a $410k listing with no mortgage.

We live in Washington state, so this will be managed remotely.

I live in NYC by the way.

Hi all, I have a couple with 2 kids living in my property, it's time to renew the lease after they have been living there for more than 2 years.The male tenant says he wants to be on the lease by himself as they broke up and he asked her to leave, but the problem is that she refuses to leave. 

Focus on modern, efficient layouts that maximize living space without extensive structural changes.

I live in CA and am looking to invest out-of-state in a SFH to rent long-term.

If the alternative is wait 5 years for a down payment on something you don’t live in, you stand to likely gain substantially by moving on this decision now and collecting rent, principal pay down, appreciation, and tax benefits in those 5 years.
