Hello,Thank you for taking time to read and to all those who contribute.

I just see a duplex as safer because you are less likely to have both sides vacant and will always have someone contributing to the mortgage.

If you are wanting to scale in this type of property now, and others in your market seemed scared away by these CENoPs (can't evict, no payers) then you've got a perfect opportunity to negotiate that with the seller.The seller is obviously wanting to sell the property, and they're currently taking the hit on the CENoPs, so why not build some runway into your purchase price (say 8 months at $3,000/mo = $24,000) and either reduce the price or (depending on your loan type) have the seller contribute this as a concession at closing.
