Greetings BiggerPockets Community,I’m reaching out for advice from anyone with experience in the Jacksonville, FL market, specifically in the Southside/Baymeadows area.

I was thinking the house would rent for 1200-1350 but it seems now the range is 1000-1200 with 1200 being the highest for the area so may be hard to get.

Rental comps in the area suggest the average rent is $1280 for a house this big. 

Hey Everyone,New to the investing world.

Good Day,I need to estimate how much the insurance will be before I purchase the property. 

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

Unless you get the owner / Pay the owner to sign something that says they arent going to reclaim the property. 

My idea is that I could offer a contract to architects with intent to purchase, as long as the numbers work.

I learned the hard way that properties don’t pay rent—tenants do.
