-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I'm interested in multi-family investment and want to buy a residential multi-family (2-4 units) to live in one unit.Ideally in Montgomery County as I live in Rockville (or PG county/Baltimore)

You should buy a good book about being a landlord.

Thank you in advance for helping me navigate this decision.I have a long history of fix and flips in several states and the first thing I want to point out is that you make your money in the "buy".

Investment Info:Other buy & hold investment.

I'm just beginning but am considering a bigger commitment in the next five years or so by accessing some or even all retirement funds to buy a building (I'm sure people have thoughts on whether or not that is a good idea!).

We are looking to buy a residential, multi family unit.

If not, buy an ozone machine and that'll do the trick.
