Getting started: Single Family or Multifamily

[Victoria Stokes]

Hello Biggerpockets Community!

Let me give some background on myself. My name is Victoria and I have finally made the decision to enter the world of real estate investing after numerous attempts of trying to back out. Eek!

I'm currently living in North Carolina and gearing up to relocate to Jackson,Mississippi within the next month or two. I've read a couple books on REI and have several more on my list. I've mapped out my immediate and long-term goals. As of right now, multifamily would be a better fit for the current goal I have set.

My question, being a non-native of Mississippi,

is there a decent amount of Multifamily homes to choose from? I've searched a few other sites to glean insight, but want to get personal insight from those currently living there or have lived in there
