Owning a single digit of house units are not worth the time you have to spend on them or turn them them over and they usually cost you twice as much as you have thought or saved for. 

There was a property about to be listed Monday It was a single property of 2 triplexes. 

(I'm a young single guy, and don't need a 3 bedroom apt to myself, so I already have two interested roommates)In this way property management will be on me.

Are the tenants short term AIRBNB, students, long term tenants that are single and don't cook, etc... 

He talked about how the average cost of assisted living is 74,000 per year for a single resident in a normal home.

My friend is a single woman who DOESN’T want to live with her boyfriend, but she does want to see him regularly.

With a max cash outlay of $80k at 25% down, that gives a $320k property with no repairs, which could definitely buy a single family B class or small duplex C class in Bremerton - but would need more repair.

A FHA 203k Loan is where the purchase price and rehab costs are rolled into a single loan.Assuming you have a respectable FICO you can buy, with a FHA Loan (3-5% down, a 30 year amortization schedule, and a residential loan rate).

I did section 8 in my C class single family homes and I will never do that again for the rest of my life...

@Jay HinrichsCorrect me if I'm wrong but the way I read The Tax Cuts and Job Acts for upcoming 2018 tax is that standards deduction is 12k for single/24k for married, making many people not able to use the reduce SALT deduction.Even if I'm to claim tax credit on my resident tax form for taxes paid in other state.....the property taxes, state income tax and local tax are only deductible up to $10k.
