We did it! Thank you Bigger Pockets! Me and my wife successfully bought our first duplex while both working and going to school. When we first bought the place with an FHA loan our inherited tenants were paying 640 a month. First month they wanted to pay late, second month they informed us they were moving out in a week. Needless to say we learned some great lessons right up front! So after ditching them we finished a remodel on one unit and just signed a lease with new tenants for 850 a month! Caught the bug and loving it! Thank you for all the shared experience on this awesome community!
