Advice on first investment property.

Hello all, 

I am trying to determine my first move whether that will be a Multi Family house hack in the Chicago area or a small house flip at first to accumulate some capital. I would need some time to accumulate a downpayment for the multi family or my other option would be to partner with someone and do a house flip to get into the business. I have listened to almost all the podcast on BP and read many of the BP books and so I know both options can work. I am interested in hearing what you all may think may be the best option for me and why. Thank you all in advance.
