Good LuckTypically multifamily is 5 units or more and Single Families are 1-4 units, so I was confused, so thanks for the clarification Actually, that part is only half true because there are additional criteria that need to be considered to be multifamily vs SFR, such as separate utilities, heating systems, how they are attached to one another (Vertically vs horizontally), etcan easy way to differentiate and communicate is to call it multifamily if it has more than 5 units. and Single family for 1-4 units or call it how it is duplexI own several duplexes that are considered single-family homes by the city.In the end, it is your decision on how to use it

Since I personally always get the most out of conferences when I have dedicated time after to decompress, digest, and implement what I've learned, I booked a private beachfront villa with some friends for a few days immediately following BPCON (checking in the afternoon of Wednesday the 9th, checking out the morning of the 12th) just a few miles up the beach from the Moon Palace Resort, and we have a couple of beds still available so I wanted to extend the invite to folks here.A couple photos of the villa are below, and some of my favorite features of this place include:- Direct beach access off the back porch- Private heated infinity pool- Private furnished terrace- Private resort access- Wifi- Indoor jacuzzis- Private kitchen- Air conditioningShoot me a DM if you're interested!
