Multi family vs single family rentals investment

[Dan Christie]

I'm still fairly new but in deciding the cost benefit of multi family investing I'm curious why so many decide to go with SFR rentals. Im not saying they aren't worth it because that subjective but I'm curious why one would choose to use a single transaction unit opposed to a multi unit transaction. Is it the cost of the acquisition (down pmt), lack of experience, to much too soon, or what. Again I'm not fighting one way or the other but I want to go as large as possible as soon as i can. $400/month does not interest me one bit for the phone calls but $4,000 makes the phone calls appealing. So im curious what way most of you started
