Larger Apartment buildings Vs 4plexes/duplexes.

[Account Closed]

I have been researching like crazy for the possibility of investing in larger apartment buildings but seem to analyze myself back to smaller multi units and duplexes every time. The loans are better and easier for the under 4 unit buildings, The cash flow seems better, and then the inventory seems better for these as well. I also picture the target millenial population to be more interested in smaller units as well. Does anyone have any insight on this topic?

I actually find the polar opposite.  It is actually easier to get financing on larger multi-family complexes and the cash flow is a lot better as well.  Again you could be making that observation due to a specific area that has low cap rates but I'm not sure.  I have invested in apartment complexes for years now and investing in singles or duplexes only has so much growth opportunity.  Best of luck!
