It's creating new ways to unlock property potential and offers a pathway to profitable investments if you're targeting the right neighborhoods.Here’s the deal: SB-9 allows to split a single-family lot into two parcels and build up to four units.

I've been fortunate enough to work with a few different property managers, but mostly people my family chose to work with.

Probably not a lot of advantage to small MF vs single family so I would stay open to both. 

Quote from @Melissa Odom: Hi BP Community,I have a small family-owned shopping center in Wimberley, Texas. 

I was initially very pleased to learn that all had been able to purchase multi family properties; I was not to pleased to learn that they all “wanted out”, but felt they were “upside” down and would have to take a loss.  

I'm considering buying a small single family home near a hospital in the Midwest to turn into a MTR, and trying to decide if it's worth the investment to furnish vs. going straight to LTR.

Thanks in advance to the bigger pockets family and looking forward to speaking to you all in the immediate investor future. 

Quote from @Virginia Frost: Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Imagine if you had one single-family home.

We pay all of our expenses out of that which includes: broker split (my brokerage takes 22% of the total commission, this varies by brokerage and is typically anywhere from 5-50% depending on how much support the brokerage provides and whether or not the agent is on a team), transaction fees, transaction coordinator cut, income taxes (15-20% of what's left after broker gets their cut), errors and omissions insurance, MLS fees, board of Realtors dues, required continuing education costs, vehicle and vehicle insurance plus maintenance, repairs and gas, health insurance (also health insurance for the family if they are the sole breadwinner), technology fees, desk fees (office rent), marketing materials, advertising/ lead gen, etc.
