SingleFamuly vs Duplex vs MultiFamily

I have a couple of questions... how does one decide which type of rentals will work best for them? Is there like an assessment that says 'based on your interests and skills these types of rentals would be the best fit for you'? Or do investors try a few and see what they are good at? Also....I know in order to be an investor I will need a real estate licensing. So my question is 1Do I need to have a real estate license to be a landlord? Also I live in Baltimore, is there a place where I can get my license through online or night classes? Would love feed back from anyone and I really appreciate this community! Best Keenan

Keenan Gladd-Brown don't over think it my friend. No license required to invest or become a landlord.

I would suggest getting your license mainly for the educational foundation. Otherwise not needed.

When ai started I purchased SFR's however all I am interested in today are 2,3 or 4 units as these properties fit my current strategy.

Best of luck to you. Always remember to persist and you will WIN
