Getting ready to purchase my first rental!

I’m getting ready to invest in my first rental property, have good amount for down payment and about to start pre-approval for a conventional loan. However, I’m still very, very undecided on which type of property to buy: should I do a single fam home, a unit in an apartment complex, a multi fam home, a townhome? What normally is more appealing to a renter, a house or an apartment? All these questions have me kind of stuck and would love to get input on some experiences some of you might have.
