Jesse,

I find tenants enjoy SFH compared to multi-unit apartments. At the same time each door is at a different location compared to a multi unit dwelling with duplicated services for heat, electrical services and so on. I have personally done many SFH investments, but may be looking to go into the apartment building direction for scaling purposes. At the same time I'm seeing the cost per door in a muti-unit building are just expensive if not more compared to a SFH. This may just be a function of the market on Long Island.
