Single Family Homes - How many bedrooms is the sweet spot?

[Nicholas TenBrink]

Greetings!

I'm new in the game of real estate investment and have been working on my strategy around single family homes and would like to pick the brains of a few of you.

Out side of the normal analysis of if a deal is a good deal or not, how many bedrooms do you feel are the max amount that you would want in a single family rental home?

I'm in the Minneapolis & St.Paul , MN market; from what I see typically is that if a family can afford to rent a 3 bedroom 1-2 bath house, they can buy one. 

That has left me thinking that 1-2 bedroom homes are where i should be targeting for single family homes.

What are your thoughts around the number of rooms in single family homes? Experiences? etc.

Thanks!
