First Investment Property...Condo or House?

[Holland Brown]

I am an active-duty military member preparing to make my first-ever property purchase using my VA loan. I am looking for a property than will generate positive cash flow but it seems that Oahu (my current residence for the next two years) might not be the best place to find a property that will do that. Does anyone have any stories or opinions to share about owning rental properties on Oahu? Would a Condo or a Multi-Unit House make more sense?
