Considering buying a new construction duplex, living in one half and renting out the half.
1,175 sqft , 3 beds 2 baths per side and a 1 car garage.
Listed for 359,000
Also listed with an offer of 4.49 apr

Current savings $70,000ish
Monthly income $5500ish

What are your thoughts? I’m dying to get into real estate/investing. I plan on living at the property for at least 5 years and I would not be using a property management service.
