Invest in SFH or MFHs in the Philly area?

I'm an out-of-state investor who lives in Seattle, though originally grew up in Delaware, and want to start investing in an area near home for me. Philly seems to have a lot of opportunity especially for MFHs, but it seems that every time I find a place it's in a low C or D neighborhood. 

Should I start out slower with a SFH as my first investment property or just keep looking for MFHs? Is there any areas/neighborhoods that anyone can recommend for me?
