Buying Investment Property in Duvall, WA
To find a good investment property in Duvall, Washington you will need to do your research. The average sale price for a home in the city is just above $700,00, which is a hefty price for any single home rental investment. Some units, especially townhouses and connected houses, sell for less. You should also research the area, as Duvall offers both rural and urban areas.
