Hard to give good advice without more info, but since You are single no kids it's hard to beat buying a single family fixer upper and living in it for two years and then selling for tax free profits....I'm a big fan of Waltham these days $.02 

., "I will buy at least one single-family home, duplex, triplex, or fourplex before the end of 2019") and then do it.

I’m open to either a townhouse or a single-family home, but I’m definitely trying to steer clear of any crazy HOAs that eat into cash flow (you know what I’m talking about!).

You can invest in single-family homes, multifamily properties, land, commercial buildings, and even tax liens, creating opportunities tailored to your investing goals.

Of the 10.8 million left, say as many as 20% are readily found, are single guys, and are just kinda floating around with no real direction or anything going on at all.

So, generally speaking husband/wife-owned LLC in a non-Community property state, must file a partnership return (ie, the LLC is not considered a single member LLC disregarded entity).

I am partnering with another investor who owns 4 single family homes in that vicinity.

It's not just for large portfolios; even a single property can justify the use of an LLC, especially if you want to shield personal liability in the event of legal issues. 

I was preapproved with that amount before, but it was for a single family, primary residence about six months ago.

I have 8 single family rentals in 2 single member/pass through entity LLC's. 2 states.
