Marie C Benoit Duplex deal analysis

So a 3 bed / 2 bath duplex usually means you’re underwriting two 3/2 units, not one “duplex rent.”Practically, I’d do it in this order:- Pull rental comps for each unit type (similar 3/2 apartments or side-by-side duplex units within a tight radius).- Be conservative on rent and assume market, not best-case.- Back into expenses using realistic numbers for taxes, insurance, maintenance, and vacancy, not rules of thumb.Then look at cash flow and debt service together.

100% agree — list quality beats volume.From working with different datasets and campaigns, one pattern that keeps showing up is that segmentation by actual seller pain points (not just surface filters) drastically improves connect rates and conversation quality.We’ve also seen that dialing efficiency improves when data is refreshed and cleaned more frequently, even if overall list size is smaller.Curious if you’re seeing similar lift when lists are stacked by motivation vs. single-criteria pulls?
