I also have a primary residence with nearly a JUMBO loan at a high interest rate and I own a vacation place in cash (small trailer not worth much money but i also own the land) in a different state that I pay RE taxes on. 

It may look like a cheap 3-4 unit, but if it is in a place that is known for high turnover or other issues, then it may not be worth it.

Highly appreciate you being willing to share the knowledge.

I used Sherwin Williams "Canvas Tan" with black fixtures, faucets, vanity lights and appliances in a 1300 sqft townhouse. 

The duplex was expensive and with rates as high as they are, I was not able to save money house hacking.

Is that a high crime area?

ya those lenders are often pretty well known for working with many of the high end west coast prefab cos

Also, there is a shortage of housing and a very high demand for rentals due in part to being a tourist town, but also because of an influx in people on coming from the west coast.
