Need info

[Phillip Gonzales]

Hello everyone I need some help so I am like a new born  baby to the real estate investing world. I want to get my first property within the next year just taking care of some consumer debt and I will be ready. So I see from a lot of people their success with single family or multi family. I want to start off in a multi family, but do not plan on living in a unit that I get. So with that being said would you feel as a new investor is a single family home easier to get going and maintain or is the extra work worth more getting a duplex. Please help me!
