Should I focus on "house hacking"?

So, I inherited a property in a prime neighborhood in Pittsburgh. The amount that was paid was next to nothing and is worth 6-7 times what was paid for it. I find that dealing with a single house is a bit of a headache but I was thinking - maybe it would be more beneficial to focus on selling and opting for a 4 unit which has more doors and through an FHA, I can control higher value real estate and walk away with cash. I'm torn between selling or just keeping. My goal is to not stay in that city long term Any perspective is always appreciated. Thanks in advance.
