The tenant base is generally 95% single women with 2 to 5 kids and they flat destroy houses, Not on purpose  most of the time but if you have children all below 10 years old they are just brutual on houses even in the best of situations of which single parent with multiple baby daddys is not the best of circumstances.. full stop.I was thinking since I only have about $80k to invest it was the best bang for my buck, now that you say that it sounds like I'd maybe have to bite the bullet but really not sure how I can still get the same or better cashflow for the cash I have available.Also curious on your opinion of using Home Warranties, PM, Home Insurance, and Requiring Rental Insurance to mitigate some of those future issues

Also, content or manufacturing industry doesn't punishment seller for using multi platforms.

Starting with single-family and small multi-family properties is a smart choice, especially out of state.

Must have multi-family zoning and be 500+ feet away from another non-owner occupied STR or you must live in the property for 6 months out of the year. 

That's a common phrase.Real estate investors can get more bang for their buck from their PMs when these folks "think like an investor."

Matthew,Am just starting to invest in multi family space, realistically up to 50 units.

For this type of a question I would suggest posting it in the multi-family forum. 

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment in Peterborough.

there has been a lot of talk in the industry about building multi generational housing..

There are a lot of cheaper areas in the Midwest and South where you could take that 500K and buy either a dozen or so properties (with a DSCR) or buy a bigger multi-family.
