(1) Duplex-Fourplex homes offer outstanding innovative financial opportunities.
Purchase or Refinance

Example: 
If you are buying a duplex-fourplex as a primary residence, AKA (Owner Occupied), you can use
 a large percentage of the income from the other unit (s) towards your debt to income ratios, when applying
for a Real Estate loan. Simply stated, you become a stronger borrower, just by buying and owning multifamily property.


Purchasing a duplex-fourplex is a great idea for many homeowners. Not only does one get to enjoy the pride of homeownership
but, he or she also gets to have someone help them pay his or her mortgage through renting out the other unit (s).

When a refinance is in order, the owner has many options, please feel free to call us, at the number below, for an overview
of our companies innovative financing solutions.


(2) Duplex-fourplex homes have a lower barrier to entry.

Buying a duplex-fourplex is a great entry point for a first time home buyer or someone who needs a more affordable entry point
in a certain market. On average, a duplex-fourplex unit is more affordable when compared to single family home with a similar
configuration of bed room, bath room, square feet, and condition.

(3)  Duplex-fourplex homes are homes with cash flow.

Buying a duplex-fourplex and occupying one side gives you the ability to have a cash flow source while having the utility of a home.
Remember, this cash flow is in addition to the affordability advantage you have from living on one side of the duplex-fourplex.
These cash advantages can take care of a part of the expense of ownership.

(4) A duplex-fourplex home gives you faster home equity.

If the goal is to accumulate home equity, then living on one side and renting the other unit (s) provides the ability to make double
mortgage payments each month, effectively halving your mortgage term. This reduces the interest paid and accelerates
your home equity which can be borrowed against if needed.

(5) Duplex-fourplex homes allow for unique living situations.

The duplex-fourplex housing style opens up options for unique situations. Say, for example, you need to take care of someone in your family
who needs close supervision,  but is also situation where both parties, yourself and your family member require privacy and space.
By living on one side and having your family member live on the other side, it solves that dilemma.

(6) A duplex-fourplex home gives you a great rental for the future.

A great aspect of buying a duplex-fourplex and living on one side as your first home is that when you are ready to move
to your next property, you will have a ideal rental property, with experience in running a property and an understanding of
how it feels from both the landlord and tenant perspective.
