I’m looking to purchase a duplex in Charlotte, with one unit being turn-key and the other in need of repairs.

You can get the STR data from something like AirDNA and then check out what your competitors offer on sites like Airbnb/VRBO.Negotiations will also depend on their cash flow and how much of the business you buy.

If you invite the government into your business, you get the good and the bad.2) In my experience,(and I may get some hate mail for this) the average section 8 resident is harder on the property. 

Being out of state, you will learn all but bad things of the process and make you think if you made the right decision.You have to start low and close, meaning trying to house Jack locally is the best.An FHA loan requires you to live in the property.

I have the 2 units already done with separate entrance (utilities are not separate). 

I am a licensed agent in Utah and so I found it on the MLS.

Hey @Katie Williams I've been using Innago for several years now and they have been amazing when it comes to managing my rental properties.

I just keep looking for the YES 😁.

As a general contractor, I have a strong understanding of the buying, selling, and financing processes, which gives me an edge in evaluating and improving properties.

I’m all about the rental properties and fix-and-flips too, so let’s definitely share insights and strategies.
