Here is a recommendation I have for you as you begin to figure out what area you want to invest in.This website is a great reference point for figuring out what each area is like. https://www.areavibes.com/It gives you a total LIVABILITY score for each street and zip code & discusses crime rate, schoolsUse this rating and classification system I have created over time to get an idea of the "Class" for the area - A class B class & so onHere is my rating & classification for each livability score.80 and above A+78/79 A76/77 A-74/75 B+72/73 B70/71 B-68/69 C+66/67 C64/65 C-60/63 D59 and below FBest of luck and let me know if I can help answer any questions! 

I have clients who have purchased multi family in Las Vegas and had great success over the years.

What are some companies that others are using to insure multi-families of this size?

Either starting with a multi-unit or house hacking to mitigate the payment.

The Class system (A, B, C) can vary by market, but here's my general breakdown:Class A: High-end, desirable neighborhoods.

I've seen banks be very competitive with blanket loans that cover multiple properties and/or multi-family properties, e.g. 5+ units.Mortgage Brokers (obviously I'm biased) - Brokers have the ability to work with all of the above and can get you to the best lender for your scenario right away instead of having you waste your time with the wrong type of lender.

Therefore they can sit back and accept say $5000/month on a multi whereas me buying it, now I need full rent amount which is closer to $6800/month.

Good market or not so much thx I'm a multi-generational New Orleanian who has been in Real Estate for 20+ years full time as a Realtor and an investor.

They were also more likely to smoke in the house and leave burn marks on furniture.Now, I’m shifting my focus to families and business travelers, especially since we’re only 5 miles from the Houston Medical District and major attractions like Minute Maid Park (home to Major League Baseball's Houston Astros), Toyota Center (home to the NBA's Houston Rockets) and the NRG stadium (a multi-purpose stadium with seating capacity of 72,220).

I came into about 800k and looking to go into commercial multi family in the Midwest (Iowa most likely).
