SFR, Dup, Trip, or Quad for a B&H starting point

[Matthew Charron]

Hello fellow BP members, My business partner and myself are in the beginning stages of investing in Buy and Hold properties. We do have a property management company lined up and we are sorting out our goals and etc. I'm just curious from some of your experiences.... Is it better to start with SFR over small multis? Can they cash flow the same if the deal is right? Do you typically run into less rehab surprises in one unit as opposed to 2-4? If we aren't managing it ourselves does it even matter besides the numbers in analysis? I'm trying to get a solid idea of where to focus my energy finding deals as we start this journey. Thank you, Matt
