Is there less turnover with SFR’s than with Multi’s?
Many experienced landlords will tell you that turnover is their biggest expense. I have read that turnover is much more common in multi units than in SFR properties, and the reasons given make sense. I have a few SFR rentals but I don't own any multi unit properties. I don't really know the difference between the two when it comes to turnover and vacancy, other than what I have read online.
I wanted to put this question out there for investors who have owned both single family residences and multifamily units, who have experienced this first hand:
Is there really more turnover in multi family properties than in single family resident properties?
