I know ROI and capital layout is important but so is monthly expenses, expected gross, debt, to equity, etc.

It is a house that would list for 250k after updating (2300 sq ft 4/2) but the layout is poor.I currently owe 128k on the house and someone offered to take my note +10K +400/month for 100 months.

If you have the right subfloor for tile, or are willing to replace what you have with what you need (plywood, hardibacker, additional labor), tile is the best product.Search youtube and BP for installation tips, but the basics are:-level, 3/4" subfloor - no movement (sometimes requires shimming or replacing joists)-layer of hardibacker or cement board -plan and play with your start/end points and layout with tiles before mixing any thinset/adhesive-aim to avoid "skinny cuts". try to have as many whole tiles and half tiles as possible-for floors: use a thinset (mortar based) product to adhere tiles to floor-for walls: use the thinset OR pre-mixed glue adhesive to adhere tiles to wall-after proper dry time, mix grout and apply to all seams.

@Craig Dieterich I have a podcast where I lay out all of the investment zip coeds and tell you why I invest in some areas and why I don't.

I'm strictly buying but I was told my landing page still needed to be tested because I was running ads & targeting a specific demo.The program I used has a Free setup and easy layout, but like I said the testing, analysis, and more testing is where I had gotten lost.

There are a number to duplexes in the area, one similar in layout but nicer condition is going for $90k.I feel the risk/reward is much better on the SFR.

Hoping those of you who self-manage can lay out your current business structure as it pertains to operations.

The size and layout of the casita really dictates whether it will be a good fit for short term rental, or is more suited to host a family member for an extended stay.

I then went to see the property and my agent didn't think I would like they layout once we were inside, however I still saw the potential.

I love this layout and information you have presented.
