1st Multifamily purchase with VA loan. Duplex, Tri, or Quad?

I am 25, currently deployed overseas and plan on using the VA home loan within the next 14 months to purchase a cash flowing investment property that I can house hack. I am looking for advice and recommendations on which type of property would best set me up for success, would a quad be to much to handle for my first property? I am leaning towards more units because I simply would like more cashflow, but does it matter? could a duplex or tri be the same? I know I am being vague and there is multiple variables involved here, i.e. the numbers, the area, my personal knowledge, ect... but what are some of your experiences? what would you all have done differently at 25 with a VA home loan, with 0% down and looking to house hack?
