Best Small Multi-Family Market

[Steve Judkins]

Newly empty nested. The wife and I are looking to buy small multi-family to house hack. We are not location dependent as we work remotely (just need to be within 1 hour of at least a regional airport). What markets are the most promising right now. We are rookies and are wanting the self-managing experience in our first LTR. We are not hung up on positive cash flow during our owner occupancy phase.  Wishlist: turn-key property, 3-4 doors, $600k or less.

Hey Steve, kudos on the plan. Love it. There are a myriad of different markets that might fit the bill here; likely mid-west (Ohio), mid-atlantic (i.e. Penn), sun-belt (Georgia). Personally the university towns are always a good target (i.e. Columbus, Athens, Ann-arbor, Fayetteville, Louisville).
