Finding investment property

Kaylea Blackburn
Posted

Hi,

My partner and I are looking for our first duplex. Planning on using an FHA, may qualify for conventional after this tax season. My question; the current market being what it is.. has made it very difficult to find a duplex and to match offers. Right now there aren't any duplex's for sale in the area we are looking (job and family). Would sending out "prospecting" letters be worth it? I have scouted several possibilities but wanted some advice on how to source a duplex in this area. Also, to find a way to be competitive with offers? Would like to find something by April, have been looking for almost 6 months now and have made 5 different offers.

Thanks
