Within most MLS systems there is a way to specify "duplex only" or "triplex only", so it may be as simple and telling your agent that you aren't interested in any half-duplexes (please exclude those) and you'd really like to only see Du- and Tri-plexes. 

It's smart to keep the search hyper local, < half mile radius from the property.

For example, let’s use this half million dollar condo. 

If nothing major comes up I'll be paid off in less than half the time.

It won't take long and it will save you a tremendous amount of money over time.Best of luckStephanieI half agree with Stephanie.

When I first started with just a couple houses, one of my favorite parts was going in after a group checked out, and finding a half a case of un-opened cold beers in the fridge. 

If you make half a million a year, you can do a lot of things very fast because your statements and DTI limits are large.

That being said, I really value the clients that I connected with organically at a meet up or conference but it's less than half of my business. 

@Kanika Sharma On average, A half a duplex priced at $55,000 with 3beds 1 bath 1,200 sqft would rent for $850-$950 depending on condition.

For clarity, the stairs are not in disrepair, but the first "step" is from dirt to the first rung on the stairs which is a few inches more than standard height.
