But it's a start.While track record is very important, learning how to interpret a track record is just as important. 

I am not able to locate the filter for multi unit properties.

The numbers could make sense if you do STR, but it's still tough because the pricing for multis is high and the long-term rental return isn't that great.

If you're expecting property owners to sell their home to you at a discount, you'll need to earn their trust - whether that be by demonstrating a successful track record with purchasing/selling similar deals OR by meeting them face to face and separating yourself from the dozens of local investors and realtors.Lastly, I'd recommend searching past posts related to this topic as well as checking out books related to your target investment strategies.All the best!

your on the right track then.. just compare costs and time involved.. then move forward

I'm not trying to insult you, but the terms "36-Unit Multi-Family" and "First Time Investor" should not go together.

And if you’re listing the house online, try platforms like LoopNet or local Facebook groups for real estate or community housing.Just make sure to do your homework and ask for references, check their track record, and make sure they’re following any local zoning or licensing rules.

Having milestones (or checkpoints) is needed when having larger goals to ensure you are on track and keep you motivated.
