Multi Unit investing in Madison, Wisconsin

[Douglass Belt]

I am looking for some advice from anyone who has invested in the Madison market. I have lived here for about 7 years and notice that prices for 2+ units are high and very hard to find deals where the numbers make sense. Is there anyone out there who has had success investing in the Madison area on a smaller multi-unit level that would be willing to share their stories, advice, success/failures with me? Are there any areas on the outskirts of Madison anyone has had sucess in (Verona, Janesville, deForest, etc.)? It seems like only SFH are where numbers make sense but not interested in going that route.

 I know some of the larger apartment building owners in the city but they are at whole other level when it comes to advice so looking for someone on a level of 2-12 unit experience. thanks!!
