Looking for my first property- Hud Homes Or MLS

[Account Closed]

Hi everyone

I am a newbie investor looking to house hack a duplex or triplex in Philadelphia. I know it always comes down to the numbers on a property but I want to know from experienced investors (being you) would you suggest I should focus more into going the hud home or home path route... or the basic mls route... being as tho I’m going to be owner occupant I know that I have a window before investors can even get involve with hud properties... verses mls where everybody got they eyes on the deal?
