I knew it was going to be a strong rental due to location and the popular "loft" style.

If you're not planning to move in, the rate will be about 0.5% higher, I think.The only potential drawback is any issue that might arise if your tenant doesn't want to vacate in two years.

But as they see that ending they have begun giving notice to move out of popular maps areas to less expensive areas like moms house.It is not all of Minneapolis and not all of the twin cities, but just certain parts.

I love gray weathered looking flooring that's popular now, but don't know that it would compliment what you have now.

I'm paraphrasing here, but these units can do really well in urban areas but become less popular in suburban areas.

I've also seen a rise in potential tenant's giving fake landlord information. 

This demographic shift from city to suburb was due to happen anyways, but with work from home becoming more popular, that just adds fuel to the fire.

The reason forced air is so popular is because you can run both heat and A/C through the same system, which is easier.Mini-split systems from both Fujitsu and Mitsubishi function down to -13° F.

Next year my wife and i are going to be buying a duplex to do the ever so popular house hack. 

No, but it won't make you popular.
