A good way to generate income in Huntsville is through multi-family unit investments, which could result in high occupancy rates and consistent rental income due to the city's thriving economy and expanding population.

I am very new to REI and would like to know if this is a great opportunity to buy in an up and coming area or if the residential properties will negatively impact my ability to rent out my other unit.

Within a year my wife and I acquired four multi-families properties with a total of 20 units, and eventually another building to rent out (currently a bait and tackle shop) as well as an Ice House.

especially when trying to attain FINANCING on a Higher Level?
