Post: Duplex offer in DFW area

I drove it and it was a mixture of duplex and sfh around the duplex. I’d describe it as a likely B- to C area.

And the current owner pays the water because it is unmetered. Do Section 8 tenants mean anything extra is needed?

I have just over $20k saved up. I found a duplex (seller asking $270k) where one side is rented out for $1,350 and she stared it was through government housing (which I interpreted to mean Section 8).

They lowered it from $300k to $270k. After looking at it, I didn’t know if it was worth that, but I am trying to think if the income made it worthy of a rethinking?

Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, wanting to make money and figured BP is the place to be.
