looking for advise on new build to rent properties

[Matthew L Hearn]

I'm looking to build on .44 acres in Wilmington NC. The idea is to build multifamily rentals to hold for the long term. The engineer I'm currently working with drew up a plan for five townhouses. Four townhouses are 1250 sq ft one bedroom and the fifth is 2 bedroom. The plan is to maximize the space we have and rent as midterm rentals to medical and business professionals. My question is does it make sense to build one-bedroom condos? Or maybe just build two duplexes with two bedrooms each? Any input would be appreciated.

Two duplexes would be much easier to finance.
