# of Duplexes vs Triplex/Quadplex

[Harman N.]

Hi all,

According to the Columbus housing page on usa.com, there are 14K units in 2-unit buildings = 7K duplexes, and 36K units in 3-4 unit buildings = 9-12K triplexes/quadplexes. However, when looking at properties sold in the past few months in Columbus, there are many more duplexes than triplexes/quadplexes.

What's your experience on relative volume of duplexes vs triplexes/quadplexes? Also, is there a site that allows you to filter on # of units? The common real estate search sites don't have this feature.
