Property type listsource criteria

I'm trying to buy a list on Listsource and I'm stuck at the property type criteria section. I'm trying to find multi unit properties (probably 1-4 units). Do I select "Residential: Multi Family" or SFR? It seems like a lot of people on bigger pockets suggest selecting SFR, but I'm not looking to find a single family home. Does this question make sense or am I misunderstanding something? Also, when I put in the filter for Residential: Multi Family, my list goes down to 0 from 3,900. Another option would be to put in Residential: Apartment, but I'm not sure if that will give me a list of apartment buildings (which I am looking for) or of single units within apartment buildings. This selection takes it from 3,900 to 488.

Thanks!

Julius Dixon Next time you do this, I believe you can preview three sample entries to make sure you're getting all the data points you want. So take the Property Type filter, select only Multi Family, then select a city, not just a zip code. Look at the sample, google the addresses to see if they are the types of properties you want to target.
