From Fixer Duplex to 14-Unit Upgrade

We bought this duplex for $135K one side had a collapsed ceiling, and the other had a long-term tenant paying just $600.

Step-by-step, we:
✅ Let the tenant stay
✅ Renovated the vacant side and leased it for $1,300
✅ Then updated the other side and leased it for $1,350

💥 6 months later, sold it for $270K-cash.

We were planning to hold…
But then came a 14-unit deal. 💡

So my client used a 1031 exchange to roll those gains into a larger property — deferring taxes and leveling up the portfolio.

📈 This is how you scale smart.

Market Rents with a Mission

📍Victorian Village, 4-unit gem 🏛️
My client purchased this beautiful building with all one-bedroom units — and we made some serious moves.

With CMHA’s updated ZIP Code pricing model, we secured $1,500 and $1,645 for two newly vacant units. That’s nearly double what they were getting before.

✨ Yes, CMHA pays market rent — and sometimes more.
Even better? You get to support those who truly need it , veterans, families, individuals rebuilding their lives all while strengthening your investment.

Don’t sleep on voucher programs. The returns are real and the impact is even greater.

I love this article, it accurately describes the lengths to which buyers must go to buy a home in today's market. If you're considering buying a home this is a must read.

The housing market is extremely competitive today, so my family and I had to take some huge risks when deciding to buy our new home.
