Commercial or small multi family?

So I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to go the house hacking route after I'm done with highschool and acquire them with FHA loans, then keep trading up properties every two years with a tax benefit.

However

I’ve also realized credit history will be my biggest obstacle starting out.

Would it be best to continue my plan at house hacking or should I get into commercial real estate were it matters more about the properties financials then my personal finances?

Keep in mind I will be graduating highschool with 24,000 from a lawsuit I was involved in.
