That said, I prefer Chase since they have all the functionality you’d need. 

If you would like to know if the components of your home are functioning properly, contact Buffalo Property Inspections at buffalopropertyinspections.com for an inspection.  

However, if both are desirable and available in your market, I would definitely choose smaller multifamily (1-4 units) hands down. 

Today’s buyers want spaces that flow naturally and maintain functionality.

If someone would choose a new, small 2/1 for 250K or a 3/1 1950s build for 250K they would choose the bigger one all day long.

Again, I do not know how multi-party investments are typically structured and I'm very much looking to find out!

Instead, shut off the water to the toilet and place a sign on the door "Art exhibit: Non-functioning bathroom."

I agree that DealCheck (or the BP calculator) does not provide enough tools or functionality to analyze those types of transactions (yet).But I would argue that it does a great job at analyzing more traditional buy & hold SFRs and multi-families, as well as flips and rehab projects. 

Multi family can range from about $60k-$125k/unit.
