@Cody Anderson Currently I'm making $3,800 for the 3b/2ba unit and $1,800 for the studio (the other side of the duplex) for a total of $5,600 per month.

Consider petitioning your GP to stop their side business of disseminating long-form life, parenting, and fitness advice on Twitter and focus on salvaging what can be salvaged of the current portfolio.If you are considering buying: Squirm a little longer.

And if 6% is on the Safer-Withdrawal Rate side, is that the real secret sauce of unleveraged SFHs?

Typically they have a side entrance that leads to the basement which can be easily split up with a door/wall.

One side has a tenant lease that expires JAN 2026, and the other has a lease that expires AUG 2025.

An agent is ON YOUR SIDE as opposed to the wholesalers and investors you mention who are in it to make as MUCH AS POSSIBLE FOR THEMSELVES!

It was a very one-sided relationship.

I’m self managing myself but the tax side of it is a little confusing to me but I’m recording everything involved as far as maintenance, traveling, expenses etc. just want to know what some people would do in my situation or what to I can benefit from come tax season  @Angelo LlamasI recommend that you find a real estate accountant to help you understand and prepare your taxes.Bigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant. 

I have never really screened much for the midterm side.

In addition- if it's not working and the tenant takes legal action, the judge certainly isn't going to be on your side when you tell them a flooring contractor said it was warm in the house.This game is all about mitigating your risk by being proactive.
