I'd be curious to get your opinion or anybody else on the post.  

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

In my humble opinion, if you want low, competitive rates, fast closings and great service, work with a broker.I'm also an investor and have been on the other side of the table. 

If you have to provide negativity with your comment, then please refrain from commenting This is my personal opinion but nothing he said was negative.

Sometimes a simple denial causes more questions in my opinion. 

I was hoping to get some professional opinions and expertise. 

My opinion is to invest in the S&P unless you are willing to spend a substantial amount of time learning the space.  

I am no expert by any means but I thought I would drop my opinion here. 1) Should I focus on duplex since they're most likely less expensive in my area in category A or B properties, or aim for more units?

Chris is telling you to provide more details.The people on this thread have a combined hundred years of experience, conflicting opinions, and have been real with you.

Questions like this often get better and more actionable responses.Also, keep in mind that while this site is an incredible resource, opinions can sometimes come across as blunt.
