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

This criteria is for 1-4 and 5-8 unit programs.

I don't rent furnished and others may be able to point out where this is flawed, but I would consider renting the furniture SEPARATE of the unit because that may allow you to collect a deposit on the furniture.

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

Hi.On one of my 4 units there is a small fence on the side of it which is unit c and I have the teanent which has been there for 4 years.

For intance I dont or didnt at the time own any MF I had a client contact me and I ended up brokering him a 100 unit apartment in Portland ..

Hello @Timothy Hilario,I think there are benefits to both strategies.If you move out of your apartment and rent it as a mid-term rental, you could see decent cashflow without pulling equity out of the unit.

Very difficult area to be a landlord.Tenant base is lifer tenants. very tough on the housestheft is rampant you leave a home vacant for more than a few days and you HVAC AC unit will take a walkKids break in and trash them.YAZOO Clay screws up the foundations big time.And lastly with those homes they were built so cheap in many instances they are just functionally obsolete and take way more maintenance than other areas of the country.

Depending on your finances you don't necessarily need to start with a duplex, but I wouldn't go any more than 4 unit if you're going residential.
