Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) commercial investment investment.

WHATS GOING ON BIGGER POCKETS FAMILY! 

For our last single family residence we had a young married couple move in with a brother, all three applied.  

Found a SFH (single family house).

This will be an excellent home for a starter home, small family, long-term rental, and definitely a really cute AirBnB.

Investing in a single-family home in LA and expecting a good cash-on-cash return will be very difficult.
