Debating which route is better in terms of

- passive income

- less maintenance and landlord involvement

- low risk of Tennant stop paying rent/evacuation etc

- long term rental with fixed increase

- low vacancy (obviously location depending)

- ROI and property appreciation

would you give with -

residents - multiple sfr, mf - apartments duplex - 4plex

or

Commercial buildings? and rent to shops/stores etc

suggestions?

location - SF bay area but open to anywhere in California or booming states.

-

under 2M

commercial is more passive.  You can find deals all day long under 2million with or without tenant.  Multifamily is more work but can have more upside.  It just depends if you are going to be a value add investor or a cash flow/passive investor.
