Is a town house or condo a good starter rental for a newbie?

Hello all!

I am new to real estate and would love to learn more. I have read the bigger pockets book by brandon turner and have done alot of online forum reading mainly reddit. I am currently in the Connecticut market and I would love to know from experienced landlords if getting a town home or condo would be a good initial rental since their relatively cheaper than homes. Looking for some insight!

Absolutely. Find one has lower HOA dues and in good financial condition. If there is a litigation you will not able to get loan and hard to sell.
