Hi everyone just wanted to know if i should get a Single house  because the multi where i live are going so fast i don't even have time to see them  since I'm a first time buyer I'm a lil slow which i understand  but wow  i found 3 deals all 3 of them got taken away because 2 were paying cash and the other one had 25% . My  agent want me to get the very  few deal that's left  i dont want to because their are not that good i ran the numbers they are not ok. so I was wondering should I get a single  instead than work on the multi later ? Any suggestion?????? pl

"Multi" is almost always the answer on these kinds of questions @Loubert Jean Philippe. Economies of scale almost always makes it worth it. 

Aside from that, it sounds like you may need a new agent. Your agent shouldn't be pushing you to do anything, especially if you already stated they don't fit your criteria. 

If nothing is working for you, it may be time to step back and get some more savings together so that you can make more competitive offers.
