A beautiful property is not always a good investment.
We define strategy, performance criteria, condition and an exit plan. Manuela coordinates the real estate process; rent, taxes, legal structure and financing require confirmation from the corresponding professionals.

What is cap rate?
Capitalization rate generally compares a property's annual net operating income with its price or value. It does not include every financing or tax effect and should be evaluated with cash flow, condition and risk.
Can I use an FHA loan for a duplex?
FHA can insure qualifying owner-occupied one-to-four-unit properties, subject to borrower, lender and property rules. The buyer must verify occupancy, appraisal and underwriting requirements with an FHA-approved lender.
