I think about 8 of the 11 tenants were pretty nice really been there long time had little gardens in front of their units.. but you had some tweaker trash as well. and of course the MH are well just suffice it to say not the best..Any advice on how to run one of these never really had this kind of asset I was going to pass but I thought what the heck its only 100k I can't go wrong  ( I hope) I would not have bought it if it was not on sewer and water though..And I do believe I could flip it pretty easy and quickly for a close to double my money type of deal.. which are the kinds I like to do.

@Derek Woods When you say duplex, do you mean half the duplex or both units... in different parts of the country they use Duplex, semi detached, and half a double, all to describe the same type of 1 unit SFR.What is the value when this is all fixed up and in great shape? 

Checking out your profile it seems you want to get into wholesaling; are you trying to lock up MLS properties followed by wholesaling them for a double commission of sorts?

Now they are either paying double or moved back in with parents as it's too expensive for them. 

At age 20 I remember standing in my friends fathers kitchen telling him that if we could put together $800,000 to purchase rental properties in Phoenix, we would be able to purchase and renovate 15 properties, cashflow roughly $130,000 per year in gross rents and in 3-4 years we would likely double the initial investment.

Can anyone recommend a good title company in Southern California that does double closings/escrows?

OP double post.

I actually double checked after you mentioned it!
