Now we are totally hooked on the idea of buy and hold real estate!

You will be surprised how much a nice color scheme can increase the value of a SFR and the cost is not that high.Remember we are still in a sellers market...

I feel for the OP as far too many first time buyers get into these 203K type deals where they are purchasing retail then spending 50-100k or more with zero construction knowledgeOn a side note, we are in Key West for a month then heading to North Carolina for a wedding but we plan on spending a few days in Charleston. 

I am looking at buying and there are a couple listings that have multiple units and I want to protect my investment by buying both but we are using an owner occupied VA loan and I would want to actually close on the sister property after we get the first BRRR finished.  

Wear-n-tear may increase with higher occupancy, but it can't easily be measured and quantified, so leave that bit alone.

I was thinking the same thing, maybe it's inflated due to excitement and might drop after the novelty wears off. 

We are currently using Athena management they charge an 8% flat for 2 doors and up.

We hope to meet many more partners and mentors through BP and we are excited to continue our quest.

Personally I'm working towards a multi or MHP by summer's end.
