Multi family vs single family
I'm looking at getting into investment in upstate NY and am trying to decide between multi family and single family. I've read in some places that single family is a more stable strategy and the returns are better for the effort. Just looking for any insights from people who do one or the other or both. Thanks!

Thanks Jason, regular cash flow is the goal. I'd like to be in a position where the rents are able to cover the mortgage payment and maintenance and still provide a modest income. I'm thinking 2-3 unit properties and I'm happy to make some upgrades in order to get a deal.
