It depends on your pool size and location.

Are duplex flips worth it, or do they tend to sit longer because the buyer pool is smaller?

I thought to post in this forum and possibly find somewhere else to look considering I'm definitely looking in the wrong pool.

I would always keep a pool table if you have space. 

It's like appraising a pool.

.• Condo financing eligibility – if the building is non-warrantable it can shrink the buyer pool.• Insurance and HOA fees – these have been rising quickly in coastal markets.• Recent comps vs. active listings – sometimes oceanfront units sit longer depending on price point and building condition.The upside is your basis looks well below market, so you have some cushion if resale takes longer than expected.The biggest risk I’d personally look at is liquidity on the exit — how quickly similar units in that building are actually moving.If comps truly support the $950K–$1M range and the building checks out, the structure of the deal sounds interesting.

Keep spraying every sunny day.  

Busier road frontage = longer DOM due to the smaller buyer pool, so would account for more holding costs as well. 

However, to get to the point of needing any of the above, you need to know, physically, what you are buying; what the true condition of each element is, how soon and at what cost it will need to be replaced; what does your desired Tenant pool expect in terms of floorplans and finishes; and who will be able to perform the needed work to meet your time and money requirements.

Because the Property Class dictates the Class of the tenant pool that the property will attract.The Tenant Class greatly impacts rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.Both Property Class and Tenant Class will affect what type of contractors, handymen and property management companies you should target and be willing to deal with a property.The Property Class will also impact the maintenance & renovations you do to, “Maintain to the Neighborhood”.Why is that important?
