SF Rental vs. Multifamily Syndication

I know this topic has been discussed within the forums, but I have struggled to find guidance. As an accredited investor, with all of the platforms and tools we have available to us now, is there any benefit in buying single family rentals vs. investing in syndications through crowdfunding sites, local firms, etc.

Thanks for the input.

If you wanna be an operator and grow a new career path choose single family.   This will allow you to start small, fail small and grow from there.  

If you're already really good at what you do and want to put money to work with no additional bandwidth required choose syndication. But understand you will have to get educated in the beginning.  Remember the sponsor is typically more important than the deal itself.

All the best on your journey!!
