I wanted to wish a Happy Holidays to everyone on Bigger Pockets.

I did purchase a four plex in Napa, CA a couple of years back, a super long rehab and now getting ready to get tenants.

Purchase price: $8,000 Cash invested: $20,000 In 2013, I decided to put much of what I had learned from books into action by purchasing a two-bedroom home—not as a traditional investment property, but as a home for my mother.

Buy a property (1-4 units).

I’ve been down that road of carrying a line of credit on a property before, and the stress can realy pile on when you’re staring at that monthly interest.

it's out of state so this is not a house-hack so why a duplex?

Eliminate debt, establish a budget, and save.

Pantry is a must in most plans as is a soaking tub in primary .
