I’m a green newbie to investment RE, but have owned my own home for approximately 9 years.

Not my cup of tea, but Boston has a lot of great things going for it that in the long run I think you could make it work.If by multi-family though you mean a 5+ building that you're presumably going to look for in the Midwest or South...it's in its own bubble as a disturbingly large number of people who made bank in the last 10 years of the up market are shifting their focus to a larger scale asset and are purchasing these distressed properties which is driving cap rates down because people need a place just to park their cash. 

So we still have the short term rental investment green light here and I personally don’t expect it to change in the near future.Let me know if I can help you in any way.

Listen to David Greene and how he had several rental properties before owning his own primary residence.

The arborist knew the tree was not healthy but a layman wouldn't have because the leaves were still green.

That’s a 6.9 percent increase and 1.2 percent above the national average.There is no way on God's green earth that the median home price (median being defined as the mid-point between the lowest price and the highest price) in these towns is $442,700. 

I am as green as could be.
