What about the downside to multi-family investing?
I hear other people talk about buying a multi-family home is the path to create wealth. The passive income sounds great, but no one mentions the problems that come with it like becoming a landlord now means stuff have to be fixed and the landlord is now responsible for those problems even if the home is being used as a house hack.

We live in the world of Falsebook, Instagratification, the easy button, comfort, permissive parenting, and get rich quick. Why should anyone have to work for anything...that's crazy talk.
