BRRRR Single family or multi family

[Jonathan Ludizaca]

Good morning everyone, I had some general questions on which idea would be better to start off. I was looking into fixing up and renting a single family home but I just want to make sure I'm starting off correctly. Since the price of a multi unit is double or sometimes 3x the price of a single family home, would it be smart to start off with a SFH and scale up from there or just make the leap into a duplex that I can force some appreciation with minor repairs. Would like to know your thoughts about this thank you.
