What is the average number of units owned by Moms& Pops’?
Hi Bp Community,
I have an interest in getting into multi-family and i want to target properties owned my single owners and not big companies.
What is the average number of units that they normally hold?
And what markets are more likely for those to be in?
Thank you!
