About Austin Duplex Investment Properties

Monte Davis Realty Group rates Austin duplexes as one of their most popular investments for themselves and their clients.

Duplex neighborhoods in Austin vary dramatically from area to area. Like most metros, Austin enjoys diverse demographics and there are many duplexes to choose. Our philosophy for the real estate investor is to buy duplexes with average or above rental capital in order to provide the highest profit margin for your investment. We achieve this by assisting our investors in selecting the very best location for their investments dollars. A higher quality real estate equates to better appreciation, more responsible tenants and in some cases lower maintenance costs.  When it comes time to sell these properties an investor will attract owner occupants and also other investors.

Here are a few facts about Duplexes:

Classified as Residential Real Estate

A duplex is still considered residential real estate. Any property 4 units or less resists the label of commercial real estate.  This typically results in lower interest rates.

Provides Diversification of Investment

A real estate investor can purchase several two unit properties in different areas, thus effectively spreading out their risk.  When it comes time to sell, duplexes in the right areas will appeal to an owner occupants looking to off-set their mortgage payment, as well as other investors.

They Blend into Neighborhoods

Duplexes are multifamily properties that look and feel more appropriate in a residential setting. A duplex can "blend in", unlike a larger unit building.

Double the Cash Flow of a Single Unit Property

Cash flow is important in any investment. Simply put, duplexes help double that potential.
