In this situation with the duplex, I think I can get one tenant to leave with a cash-for-keys agreement, but the other will be more difficult.

For example, I have a newer duplex I am selling for $435,000.

Last month, my wife and I purchased a fantastic duplex in Madison, WI, for $400,000 using an FHA loan.

There are many duplexes and multi-family existing housing available to choose from. 

If you open up the wall to do something, you will need a permit for plumbing and electrical a lot of the time because they will want to see behind the wall before you close it.

I hope they are an even better experience beyond the credential wall.

These have two very different next steps.If it is a condo, you need to check your condo docs and see where the unit ends and what is common area. if its a leak in a pipe in a wall that is typically common owner and the condo association should take care of it.

I think flipping is the way to go on this project since it’s my first deal which has always been the plan but very grateful for some guidance. 5 weeks of tear out, wall paper removal 🙃, new electrical, deck supports, HVAC install…we start putting it back together!
