Not sure if multi family is for me: turnover?

I have a four plex under contract and have some hesitations about how involved I will have to be. Seems like the tenants have not been there that long. I have seen that apartment rentals turn over more often, about 9 to 12 months or so in the past at other places I've watched like a hawk.

Right now my single family houses have long term tenants in them. Many have been there 3 years and counting. Hardly ever call me. Hardly any turnover.

Now with a four plex I worry about having to constantly deal with turnover, coin operated laundry, etc.

I'm not sure if it's worth it or not.
