Charlotte Newbie- looking for market advice

Hello!

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I would LOVE your opinions on the Charlotte market.
My husband and I currently own multi-unit property in another state, but will be moving to Charlotte this summer for work. He is transitioning out of the military, so we will have our VA loan to use.

We are primarily buying multi-unit property in our home state but we would like to make an investment purchase in Charlotte as well. I know the market is super hot there, so I would love to know what is working for you.

We've thought about buying a duplex or small multi and living in one side for 2 years. However, I've noticed that the cost of multis are super high in Charlotte. 

We are also looking at a live-in-flip, but it seems those can be hard to find as well. 

From your experience, what is the best way to go for this hot market? He will be working in Charlotte, but we are open to moving into one of the neighboring areas if we need to.

Thank you!
