Dual rental income streams
Duplexes make sense as the best 21st-century real estate investment. As cities become denser, the availability of large sections of land diminishes. A duplex subdivision can use less land to create more rentable units. It is also easier to find these small parcels, and with homes clustered, land costs are reduced even more.

Years of Investment Experience
When we build new duplexes, they come with duplex features that can cut down on maintenance. Using granite instead of Formica counters, higher-end appliances, tankless hot water systems, luxury vinyl plank and tile instead of carpet, and fencing with steel posts cuts down on long-term maintenance issues.
Combining this with first-class property management that we have worked with for 17 years creates confidence for tenant renewal, and every fixed monthly inspection ensures that any tenant damage is paid for by the tenant and not you. We also have a record of only two evictions since April 2020.

Our team goes to work for you
The VRT team starts with working with the best builders you can trust. I fi monitori8ng the construction from beginning to end and informing you of the progress. We connect you with third parties like lender, insurance agents, and closing companies, and inspectors so that every detail is handled from start to finish. This also requires robust communication and always being there for you with any questions or concerns.
Both have their advantages, but duplexes give you the ability of having two rentals with one loan. With the Fannie Mae limit of ten mortgages per individual this allows you to build up more doors of rental that gives you greater cash flow.
Yes, and thousands of investors have done this with us. With 35 years’ experience with real estate investments and a turnkey solution that gives you truly passive income, this allows you to purchase in one of the most successful and growing rental market in the US.
Fannie Mae financing is available for duplexes at 25% down minimum that gives you typically the same lower rates as single family homes. There are also what is called DSCR loans for investor who have over 10 mortgages that is real estate income based.
Duplexes can be sold in three ways. First, if the loan is paid off you can sell it as half duplexes that are below the cost of single family homes. We build the duplexes with separate A and B legal descriptions. Second FHA and VA allow an owner-occupant to get zero or 3.5% down payment financing and they can use the income of the rental side for qualifying. The last one is to sell the whole duplex to an investor.
A turnkey duplex is a new and ready-to-rent two-unit property that requires minimal work from the investor. These properties are typically:
* Our properties are new construction and in great condition
* Ready to be occupied by tenants upon completion
* Managed by a property management company
Turnkey duplexes offer a convenient entry point for investors, especially those new to real estate or investing from out-of-state
Investing in duplexes offers several advantages over single-family homes:
* Dual income streams: You can collect rent from two units instead of one.
* Better cash flow potential: The combined rent often covers mortgage payments and expenses with money left over.
* Lower per-unit maintenance costs: Shared roof, exterior, and foundation reduce overall expense.
* Reduced vacancy risk: If one unit is vacant, you still have income from the other unit.
Yes, almost all of our investors are out of state. But we want to make sure we provide you with everything you need to make an educated investment:
* Be sure to check out our Market Research videos.
* We have a network of local professionals, including real estate agents and property managers.
* We have the technology for virtual property tours and management.
* Consider our turnkey properties for easier management.
* We will help with local laws and regulations that may differ from your home state.
Several financing options are available for duplex investments:
* Conventional loans: Typically require 15-25% down payment34.
* FHA loans: Allow for lower down payments (as low as 3.5%) if you plan to live in one unit.
* VA loans: Available to eligible veterans with no down payment required.
* DSCR loans: Offered by private lenders based on the property’s income potential.
* Investment property loans: For non-owner-occupied properties, usually requiring larger down payments.
Property management for duplexes can be handled in several ways:
* Self-management: You handle all aspects of property management yourself.
* Our professional property management: We manage the property for you23.
Our property managers typically handle:
* Tenant screening and placement
* Rent collection
* Maintenance and repairs
* Legal compliance
* Financial reporting
Professional property management is often crucial for out-of-state investors for successful duplex investing. Management fees usually range from 8-12% of monthly rent, but this cost can be offset by the time and stress saved in managing the property remotely.
