Aren't there many people who want the nice looking, cosmetically fixed up home?

I am new to real estate investing and have mostly been working on single family homes.

The value of the home (well its actually 2 homes 1 lot) is 260k.

One person downstairs works from home; the noise occasionally impacts their work.

However, I am noticing prices on these homes drop over the past couple of years making it a little bit easier.I would also look at what the terms are if you put down 0%, 10 or 20%.Are the fees or interest rate different?

What specific items do home inspectors focus on when it comes to all concrete construction new homes such as Onx builders?

Chad Carson's Small and Mighty approach was what initially drew me to REI; it opened my eyes to its wealth-building potential, especially with respect to achieving FIRE.From speaking to real estate professionals at local events, it looks like multi-family homes outside the Greater Boston Area (but still in MA) are what I should be looking at first, although since I'm very new to REI it's possible my thinking will change over time as I learn more about different markets and strategies (e.g. single family homes in out-of-state markets).

Then look in the general area and similar home type/size.

The median price of a home in 1975 was about $39k.

Higher-end homes in the same markets can absorb those cost inputs; starter homes cannot.
