I actually retired in 2015 and let my team continue on without me, but after 3 months of sitting around at age 35, I got SUPER bored and couldn't stand NOT doing real estate.

My main take away on this property was how to work with contractors, to important is it to review the bid during the remodel to make sure to not add too many "change orders" and to stand your ground with contractors.

There's money in D, and not the kind that's in the banana stand.

We're already into four pages of high-touch people arguing about standing on expensive principles, you've already seen what it's worth, let's focus on helping you now.

You cant stand the facts so you choose to attack me

As you are probably seeing, the $275K duplex makes no sense as a stand alone investment property.As an example, a borrower can't afford a $225K house that might have a PITI payment of $1500/month. 

You are giving the tenant nothing to stand on.Your lease could also have language that absolves you from fixing issues, but it does not matter.

I always know before I make an offer if we stand a chance.

But there is a feeling that I should stand up for my contribution to the deal.Would love some guidance from the Bigger Pockets community.

With so much of our current environment being virtual, it's going to be the physical connections that stand out the most.
