To Build a Duplex or not to build?
I want to start investing but I'm having trouble finding a great deal on multifamily properties. Everything is so expensive and the cheaper ones are in bad locations.
My dad can build a home from scratch so I was thinking in partnering with him and build one, occupy it, build a few more on the same lot and either sell or hold. Building one would cost me as much as an old ugly one. I know it's a huge step for my first move but is it worth it? Any input is would be great.
