I'm a big fan of multi-family, so if it was me, I would probably sell the single-family to build up some capital and keep the duplex for the cash flow and appreciation.

Hi @Howard Thomas, I am a big fan of investing in multi-family properties. 

Even though we have a duplex in Mission Beach that has been primarily an STR since 1999, I am not a fan of STRs in all areas for many of the reasons you cited.However, in general, I am against quick changes. 

I know cash for keys could be done and in my day to day work I deal with a good amount of negotiation where I feel somewhat confident but would like to know my S*** hit the fan worst case scenario if the current tenant won't budge.

I'm a fan of NE Greensboro up O'Henry as there's more MFH builds there, and newer construction closer to 840 will help the area.

I am not a fan of withdrawing an IRA, but you can drown in high interest credit card debt.

Hi Tyler, I can't speak to the Baton Rouge market as I am down the bayou on the Northshore but I am a fan of all of us buying common sense deals with multiple exit strategies during this time.

We however aren't big fans of single-family homes for rentals only because it drives us nuts when an asset isn't producing cash.

I don't know anything about Roofstock, but I am not so much a fan of these investing platforms trying to shortcut or "democratize" the process.
