I have been listening to the BP podcasts for a while now and the speakers usually advice 4-plex and above rather than a duplex to get more earning potential.

Hi All,I recently found out a duplex I own only has a single water meter feeding both units.

So I am in the process of doing a cashout refi on a duplex I own.

I devoured whatever I could find on finance, real estate, investing, tax laws, etc.I bought my beautiful condo in 2011 while rates were low, under market value and carried both properties through the recession seeing a HUGE return and everything became clear. 

Hey all,I'm looking into pulling a loan out of my TSP account in order to make the down payment on a duplex I just got under contract.

The property is occupied on both sides (its a duplex).

I have a few questions about getting started in mutual partnerships, particularly 2 of my close friends.Basically my short term goal is to save enough funds to put 3.5% down plus have 6 months expenses saved towards a 100k-120k FHA loan on a duplex, triplex, or quadplex & househack for the first 1-3 years.

Bought this duplex a few years ago and I'm currently house hacking but need more live in space for my family.

This is my first post in the forum as I recently became a BP member :)My husband and I just got a Duplex under contract that requires significant repairs (no structural/foundation work) as it is quite old and has extensive wear and tear. 

I discussed with my sister house hacking and other investment ideas and we looked at duplexes and houses with apts..My sister and her husband have decided to build a home and put an apt int the basement for our parents to live.
