I've come across some single-family homes from the 1960s that have been on the market for a while.

2) Which areas within Orlando have a history of strong appreciation for small multi-family property?

You can use a VA loan or an FHA loan for small multi family property as well as single family. 

Who are the top 10 single family investors? 

We just purchased 8 multi-family properties in Lewiston ME with another 5 closing next week.

Hello BP Family! 

I've had one bad investment that I have held onto, but it's because I love the property and spend time there with my family in between mid term tenants.

I'm looking to invest in my first property in Denver and would like to acquire a small multi-family (3-4 units), live in one of the units and rent out the others.

My reasoning is because I simply do not qualify for a loan for any properties out here and units that are being sold off in smaller multi-family properties have ridiculous HOA rules that make it quite difficult to cash flow or just pencil out in general.

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.
