Honestly, why would anyone do that when the median house price of NYC is almost 1 million.

I'm waiting because I still haven't owned my house for 6 months.

End goal is get into the commercial housing and industrial.

The investor if they slip and the lender if they need to take the house back.  

I was recently sent details about a 20-unit apartment complex that I’m interested in, but the seller's asking price doesn’t align with the numbers I’ve run.

Nice way to house hack!

You certainly can ask the seller to make the units vacant before closing.

I don't see it as an issue but many still do, at least in my small town where the majority of renters are elderly people looking for low maintenance housing options.

There is no housing market in US where real estate can out perform stocks.
