Hi Anthony, I live in Puerto Rico and I got to tell you that duplex properties down here are not quite the best investment unless you want it for personal use or buy for rent.

I think what should happen is that whoever they got it from should be able to email it to that person - so if I applied at trans Union within their system I can add who to send too and it would go to themI wouldn’t trust it coming from someone.

I’m basing that more on things like W2’s being issued by a business versus what was reported by the person who received it - but I imagine it extends to all types of transactions.you are flirting with danger though.  

If this property had been in one of the areas zone for more density they would surely have done a normal "Seattle six-pack" of 0-lot-line townhouses but instead they short platted 2 lots to still in effect end up with a six-pack even though in an area not zoned for it, at the cost of having to sell units as condos and deal with other ADU limitations (e.g. 1000sf limit).In 2023 the State mandated Seattle-style ADU regulations across all urban growth area cities/counties, going even a bit further (2 of any combination of attached/detached allowed).

Cook 3 Questions: 1) Do you own & operate STRs personally?

When I first started doing research I was looking for the perfect platform where I was really over architecting my personal need.  

Even if it's only available for personal residences I'm curious if some of the veteran loans are better than what you could typically get on the open market. 

Wall Street thought we were going to get six- eight rate reductions this year we’ve seen none so far and stagflation is setting in , the Fed is trapped , if they reduce rates now , inflation could catch on fire if they increase them again too much something in the economy will break I think we’re in this holding pattern for one to two years personally, I don’t claim to be a macro economic expert, but I do study it quite a bit and I’m not counting on or expecting rates to come down anytime soon and even if they do, they’ll just be small quarter-point rate hikes not enough to make a huge difference in cashflow, so ..I either hold and if they do decrease rates, there will  probably be another asset inflation bubble, which will increase my appreciation, or my cell and deploy the capital more wisely and look for some market softening and buy a good deal

Currently we are dealing in single family homes and non-commercial multi-family but have future growth visions on mid-sized commercial multi-family as well as STR's.Outside of real estate, I enjoy God - Family - Fishing and Friends.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

I would personally sell those now but I don’t like D’s so take it for what it’s worth.
