Im looking at purchasing a duplex in middletown, Ohio.

Hey Everyone,As many of you know, Pittsburgh is a unique market with a lot of opportunities in neighborhoods where properties can still be purchased for less than $100K.

Most larger communities will have a Homebuilders Association, i would start networking to find a builder that can finance the construction. 

Newly built (2024) duplex in Boiling Springs, SC. List price: 445,000.DP: 89,000
Closing: 8900
Total Invest: 97,900
Projected mortgage: 2500
Rent: 1700 per unit, 3400 total
Taxes: 42
Insur: 263
CapEx: 100Repair...

There is a catch - the couple wants to 1031 the funds into their sons next larger project which is TBD.

Meet with a local banker & schedule a time to talk with a mortgage broker, they'll give you at least a baseline of what kind of down payment options and rates are out there.After that, if you're still wanting to research more creative options, do some looking into seller financing (a very hot topic with good, and bad, advice out there), look into private lenders, and commercial financing options.If you're wanting to live in 1/4 of your quadplex, then conventional residential loans may in fact be your best option as you can purchase that with a fannie/freddy loan with very low down, and use up to 75% of the income from the property toward your own income. 

Some of the larger brokerages (like coldbanker or Keller Williams or @ properties) would be better if you are going to get super focused on being a broker.

These deals typically require larger cash outlays (50k-100k) per deal minimums.

With a larger organization like iintoo you'll likely be talking to an account manager that has been assigned to working with you.

This sounds like a home run and a great first purchase!!
