The tenant complained about lead-based paint and found that their child had lead poisoning.

The owner developed the property in 1992 and had been micro-managing Andrew for the past four years because this development was like a child to the owner.

It is move in ready.We would like to purchase a property to live in and fix up while we rent our primary for 2 years then move back in as our primary (once our first child is school age).The advantages I see are essentially this sets up up to purchase at least 2 more properties (one with the extra income and one we would be living in)The dis-advantages I see are potential tax issues.What disadvantages, if any, do you see?

I had called a hard money lender and probably sounded like a rambling child!

And that's why you see this CRAZE of wholesalers .. all thought those folks are just selling real estate without a license and one of these days the states are going to put an end to that its already starting.

@Isaac Childs Congrats on overcoming a fear a lot of first-time investors have - getting out there and actually meeting people!

Have a child or get a girlfriend and suddenly you need more space. 2/1's are far more stable, with 3/2's allowing tenants to stay for years (but they are a lot more rare in multifamily).So I'd highly advise going for the triplex rather than the 6-unit building.

I'll have to admit, What you guys have provided in this site would have costed a literal arm, leg, and first born child a decade ago and maybe still so today.
