Personal opinions on multi family
Hey all,
I read two different books over these past couple of weeks. One was BRRRR by David Greene and another Financial Freedom by Michael Blank.
BRRR is around single family housing and another is multi family. Which I better in you guys honest opinion? Of course buy and hold both, and what is the difference besides the obvious?

Hi @Noe Arreola,
The BRRRR strategy can be applied to both single-family and multi-family. You typically see greater cash-flow from the multi-family because of volume.
From what I've learned through reading, podcasts and other investors is this:
- Multi-Family: Great cash flow, more doors for 1 purchase, faster path to achieving wealth
- Single-Family: Won't cash flow as much as MF, not as easy to scale up as MF. SF does have better exit strategies. If it's a rental, you can sell a home faster than a MF unit. Only investors are looking for MF, so the sell process could be longer.
That's about all I have time to type as my baby girl is getting restless :-).
