Are condos a good decision for a first time investor?

[Dante Farres]

I’m a brand new investor looking for my first investment property. I live near the GWB on the New Jersey side which allows for a decent amount of condos and apartments for sale. Should these be looked at similar to a single family home? Are they a good investment for producing cash flow or am I better off looking for a multi family?

Any information on condos is greatly appreciated, thank you!
