Single vs Multi post coronavirus appeal
Hi everyone.
I’m new to the community and was after listening to one of the recent podcasts, I was left wondering: Will the appeal of single family homes increase in the coming future as opposed to small multi family homes due to the fact that people won’t want to be coming into contact with other tenants/neighbors for social distancing concerns? Basically will people avoid apartments out of fear of catching coronavirus, and how will it affect desire for single family homes?
I should note I would intend to buy a single family or multi family and rent it to someone, I’m not talking about flipping or selling.
Would love to hear any feedback, thanks!
