I am from Stevens Point, and that price for a duplex seems high, but if you know your market, then I hope the best for you.

The property was last sold (according to trulia records) in 2003 for $130k, which is still higher than today's evaluation.Thanks @Steven Gesis- cash def seems like a viable option for this particular deal, I am just afraid that it will take a long time until it is refinanced.Does anyone have any idea as far as timing is concerned - will they allow me to refinance right away or will I have to wait 6 mo/year

@Steven Berro, I'd be happy to sit down over coffee or lunch and chat about my experience with you.

Steven, a good thing to know when buying an investment property is who is your agent and does he/she specialize in the type of investment property you're looking to buy (assuming you decide to utilize an agent).

@Steven Mitchell I wouldn't say that is "standard", although many PM's want to protect their downside built in.

Steven Kennerley contact Mario Mormile for your request.

@Lucas Gibson, @Steven Leigh has everything pretty much perfectly laid out.
