Nice to meet you.There are pros and cons to both SFH and multi-unit:SFH pros:Cheaper/lower out-of-pocket cost to get startedMore inventory/more available optionsEasier to sell (whether immediately because you want out or later down the line because you want to recapture your investment) due to the fact that both investors and buyers looking for a primary residence are potential buyers."

Here in Southie, there is more inventory that we've seen in quite some time, but not a ton of downward pressure just yet.

I am looking into these mainly because the inventory in my market is extremely low i have been struggling to find deals.

The Los Angeles market has seen inventory drop over the past few months, pushing prices even higher.

There is no inventory!

Horeb, Barneveld, and Dodgeville (Lands' End headquarters here) and a lot of people moving this way and commuting into Madison so there isn't a lot of inventory.
