Hi Daniel, Would you be utilizing one of the units in the duplex as a primary residence or do you plan on renting both units from the start? 

Start the eviction process on the first available date, every time.

CRS and ALE Solutions has a place on their website where you can add your property to their database, that's an easy start.

What is a good place to start?  

Just getting started in my real estate investment journey.

Start operating in a market.

Even better if I can sit down with a builder and get started on funding and blueprints.This meta-strategy will use all the above strategies:1. house hacking: house will be built from scratch to maximize rent/room, while having a family unit/ADU for my family to live in one year2. costseg/STR: the building will be built from scratch to maximize bonus depreciation.

Now, I'm ready to take the plunge myself and explore the world of investment properties.About Me:With five years in the real estate industry, I've honed my skills in understanding market trends, property valuations, and negotiation strategies.

I am starting out in the rental real estate investment space and considering Section 8 rentals - not necessarily limited to any specific city (would appreciate suggestions).

Does anyone have a few affordable skip tracing software's to start out with?
