Schools are 9 and 10s.One out of the 4 units is being renovated and we will choose the tenant.

I have got a few response from people saying once I get some experience that they would consider maybe partnering on a larger deal (Larger for them). 

But whatever you do, please, do not over-renovate the property or try to make it the BEST property in your neighborhood.

All my properties today are SFR, but interested to start looking at small MFR, perhaps moving up into larger buildings. 

Add some larger capex items (a roof, heating system, maybe a multi-month eviction).

I just spent $16k on a full cosmetic renovation of a duplex to net 30% higher rental income.

I am Efi, I and my husband Simon have been learning a lot from BP for almost a year now.We recently bought our first multi-family house in Montclair NJ and starting to renovate soon.I also completed my real estate license 6 months ago.We are looking to connect with other investors in our area and learn more about Wholesaling and Foreclosures here. 

Bring this money to closing, the closing agent pays the seller their $43k, and then I get a portion of the $22k in funds to access to begin the renovations.

I think if you're looking for a "jumping off point" for international travel, a larger airport like Tampa is a better bet.

I don't really see the issue as deals being 'harder to find', it is: what is the cost to locate and acquire a deal, which is a cost just like renovation is a cost.
