At this time most multifamily properties in Socal seem to be out of my price range / down payment, but I could be wrong.

You should have purchasing power-up in the $500-$600k range, some of the western suburbs like Cicero and Berwyn have decent cash flowing multi-units in that price range.Was there a particular reason you were thinking of buying a condo?

The rehab estimate sounds a little light for what is required, and is definitely at the top of the hard money range/70% rule range.

I have been grateful to meet someone from an online event who is apart of a whole wide group of investors and they helped me get out of a deal for free.

Since these properties in my targeted area can be found in the 50-70k range I plan to buy outright for my first property.

I am having a hard time running comps due to the difference in the units, as well as knowing a good cap rate range.

It's a bit out of range for my agent friends in Asheville, but I recall that @Jordan Lockaby has a good contact down there.

There are a to available in my price range of 250k-350k.

I'm wondering what the general range is for properties in western Durham.

Considering the lot is 25’ wide, that would only leave me 9’ of width to build by right.
