Also, are you living in one side and house hacking this?

I have always been passionate about creating quality homes that enhance communities and provide families with exceptional living spaces.

I lived in Seattle for 5 years.

Jealous that you live so close to it!

I have a new tenant and I now require someone to assist me with managing onsite.

I assume the "caretaker" is living for free?

Multis feel more like a house and you have one person living with you (or 2 or 3 depending on duplex, trip, or quad), whereas an apartment complex has more amenities, but people sharing walls everywhere.

I lived in Saint Louis for most of my 20s (and grew up in the general area), but even after being gone for over 10 years, I wouldn't trust my ability to pick locations outside of the no brainer A-B areas.I hit my FI number and have left my "golden cuffs"; I don't know your situation, but I what I can probably promise you is that it is going to take longer and be more difficult than you expect. 

Thank you for your assistance!

Hello everyone, I have lived in Los Angeles since 2007and have no plans of leaving, although the state taxes are brutal.
