When buying your first property, especially multi-family, you're bound to frequently come across occupied units and often while the tenants are home.  

Hi, My name is Ahmed Aboelela and I'm a just getting started in the real-estate game.How do you build up enough capital to buy a rental property?

I tend to get frustrated when I keep telling people that you can buy large multifamily with 0% down.

I don’t know any other investors in the sense of what I’m doing in that I’m actively looking and buying and sourcing deals.

@Chris Kittle where in Michigan do you plan to buy real estate?

My husband and I are planning to buy rental properties in Davenport, IA.

It was ok to go ahead to buy the property. 

Quote from @Laura Au: Hello BP Community,I am first time flipper looking to identify an out of state market to do my first flip to generate cash for investment business rather than the buy n hold strategy.

They'd be taking over an 80k loan and buying the property for 125k. 

If you want a true duplex, you'd also need to make sure zoning would allow it vs adding a legal suite.Why not just buy an existing duplex?
