This is huge for you as a new person in the space to do it repeatedly and learn from someone that has massive experience. 

During the winter, it is popular for people getting out of Anchorage for a weekend of “snowmaching” or relaxation.

But in 1-4 door space and Fin of Am you can get 30 yr am fixed term. 

We offer it to free for our clients because we know that it seals the deal when people walk through the space.   

Larger square footage may also be dividable in a way to create multiple living spaces.

Start with a small insignificant space to learn what you need to learn (keeping planks from shifting, layouts & cuts, etc). 

The forever home will need to either be a duplex, have an ADU, or some other separate space for her mom to live in, as she currently lives with us but we will need to have separate spaces when we get married.

Also consider what your tenant base wants - some neighborhoods want high-end finishes, where others are only concerned with space and layout, and others need a combination of the 2.

It is a balancing act between trying to maximize bed space (heads in beds) vs attracting the right number of right people.

BRRRR method is king in the rental space and I continue to provide deal after deal exceptional returns on distressed deals.
