Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I’m actively seeking to purchase either a multi-family or duplex unit in the Columbus area  for a medium rehab project. 

There is a multitude reasons why I like small multi-family properties over SFH.  

There is a house (2b x 1b) in the family I was interested in becoming the owner of.

I've 100% focused on Adaptive Reuse of Class B Industrial Space. 

My guess is that you will pay less per month with multifamily than a single family. 7.

What value is expected or provided by an agent who specializes in multi-family residential, not commercial. 1-4 units.

Do you know if this would be an issue when it comes time to having my 5 year DCA inspection in ( mid 2025) as the property is only register with them as a 4 family?

Does anyone have experience exchanging their small multi family property into a single family home, use it as an investment property then move into it as a primary residence after meeting the requirements?

Insurance liability, I personally know 2 families that lost their children in home pools.
