I work with buyers and sellers of duplexes and other investment properties. We look beyond the asking price to examine rents, operating costs, financing, future repairs, and the buyer’s intended hold period. For a client who will live in a unit first, we also model what happens after they move out and rent the entire property.
What we look at together
- Current and market rents, vacancy and lease terms
- Taxes, insurance, utilities and other operating costs
- Financing scenarios, including owner-occupied loans
- Near-term and future repairs and capital items
- Your intended hold period and exit plan
- Live-in-one-unit now, rent-both-units later
