Using home equity to finance a multi-family

[Chris Agun]

Hello All happy new years!

So I would like to get the opinion of some experienced investors.

My goal is to buy (3) three to four multifamilies.

I inherited a 3 family fully paid off and own my current home.

Between the two I have roughly 550-600k in home equity.  

What is the best strategy to leverage this for my goal?  

Also I'm not opposed to doing something commercial if someone has an idea.
