single family vs multi family

[Patrick Flanagan]

Hello!

I personally like multifamily investing because of the cashflow, value add, and a little easier on the pockets if you have vacancies. I close on a 4 plex in Oregon this month, im currently looking for other multifamilies out of state. 

I dont know much about single family homes. I havent really heard anyones opinion on why they prefer single families over multifamily. so if you could give me some reasons why single family homes are a better investing strategy over multifamilies? I dont want to rule out single families when lots of people make great money on them.

my goals are long term buy and hold cash flowing rentals.
