Does it matter if it is a single family or a two family?

You’re moving from single-family to multifamily investing, consider DSCR or commercial loans that qualify based on rental income instead of personal income.

We recommend 20% of annual gross rent for a typical, average condition, single-family.

My goal is to scale beyond single-family rentals and small multifamily units, and I'm eager to learn how investors break into the larger apartment complex deals—especially using other people’s money or with a low initial investment.I'm open to syndications, joint ventures (JVs), and partnership structures that allow for a lower capital outlay while maximizing potential upside.

Many investors start with single-family because it’s a great way to learn the ropes, build equity, and get comfortable with the process before scaling into multi-family.

I purchased our first single family house in 2020 and since then have BRRRR a second property in Februrary of this year that we are living in currently.

Currently my portfolio is a single family residence in Denver CO and I’m planning on using a HELOC against it as a bridge loan for some of the downpayment and renovation costs.I’ve been trying to build some models on Google sheets for deal analysis to assess deal validity and candidly I think it can be done better.  

Every landlord is different, its pretty normal in single family to charge the tenant everything.2.  

A single vacancy in a duplex hits a lot harder than a single vacancy in a 40-unit.

For what you’re trying to do, you’re right to be cautious with condos since Atlanta HOAs can kill a future rental plan fast, so most long-term investors I work with end up choosing single-family or small multifamily homes for the flexibility.
